Whiskey Lullaby
She put him out like the burnin' end of a midnight cigarette

- She put him out like the burnin' end of a midnight cigarette
- She broke his heart, he spent his whole life tryin' to forget
- We watched him drink his pain away a little at a time
- But he never could get drunk enough to get her off his mind
- Until the night
- He put that bottle to his head and pulled the trigger
- And finally drank away her memory
- Life is short, but this time it was bigger
- Than the strength he had to get up off his knees
- We found him with his face down in the pillow
- With a note that said, I'll love her till I die
- And when we buried him beneath the willow
- The angels sang a whiskey lullaby
- The rumors flew but nobody knew how much she blamed herself
- For years and years she tried to hide the whiskey on her breath
- She finally drank her pain away a little at a time
- But she never could get drunk enough to get him off her mind
- Until the night
- She put that bottle to her head and pulled the trigger
- And finally drank away his memory
- Life is short, but this time it was bigger
- Than the strength she had to get up off her knees
- We found her with her face down in the pillow
- Clinging to his picture for dear life
- We laid her next to him beneath the willow
- While the angels sang a whiskey lullaby
