Whiskey And Woman Lyrics - David Allan Coe

I've got this weakness for women and whiskey 

It's something I just can't control 

I've tried hard to shake it with out any luck 

It keeps burning deep in my soul 

I thought you could change things 

And while you were with me 

I never loved no one but you 

But it's gonna take more than whiskey and women 

To make me forget that we're through 

Baby, sometimes at night when I reach out to touch you 

I wake up chilled to the bone 

There are so many things I can't get used to 

Specially being alone 

I built my whole world around you 

And now that you're gone 

I don't know what to do 

But it's gonna take more than whiskey and women 

To make me forget that we're through 

I found me a woman to lay down beside me 

She offered her body and soul 

And I took them hoping for some silly reason 

She'd help me regain self control 

I left like a thief in the night 

When the first light of dawn 

Turned the gray skies to blue 

I sobered up knowing she'd never be able 

To make me forget that were through
