I Wish He`d Been Drinkin` Whiskey — текст песни (Terri Clark)

(Bob Dipiero & Karyn Rochelle)

I used to think it was all in the drink
It mad ehim the way that he was
He swore he`d change, poured it all down the drain
And finally he`d given it up
But tonight in the kitchen
I sat there and listened
To words he could never take back
I didn`t see no Jack or Jim Beam
He was drinking his coffee black.

Chorus:
Oh, I wish he`d been drinkin` whiskey
When he told me he didn`t love me
But he was stone cold sober
He meant what he said
And h edid what he did
`Cause in his heart it was already over
The truth doesn`t lie
So I can`t deny it like I`ve always done before
Oh, I wish he`d been drinkin` whiskey
When he told me he didn`t love me no more.

He used to come home drunk to the bone
After he`d stayed out all night
He`d start slammin` doors and pacin` the floors
And we`d always end up in a fight
But tonight there`s no screaming
Just the sound of him leaving
And the silence that rings in my ears
This house is dry, but for the very first time
I wish there was a bottle `round here.

Chorus:
Oh, I wish he`d been drinkin` whiskey
When he told me he didn`t love me
But he was stone cold sober
He meant what he said
And h edid what he did
`Cause in his heart it was already over
The truth doesn`t lie
So I can`t deny it like I`ve always done before
Oh, I wish he`d been drinkin` whiskey
When he told me he didn`t love me no more.

Yeah, I wish he`d been drinkin` whiskey
When he told me he didn`t love me no more...
