Stronger Than The Whiskey

Poor Man's Poison Poor Man's Poison

There he goes again, lost in the drink
The bottle’s half empty as he tries not to sink
There he goes, again
He lost control again, the drink takes him down
Despair in his eyes as he tries not to drown
There he goes, again

She says: Don’t give in now, we still need you, I still need you around
He says: I don’t know how, but I still need you to save me somehow
There he goes, again

Worse for the wear, empty glass, empty stare, and he tried, to outrun his history
And his kids and his wife fought like hell for his life, they tried, in the end it ain’t a mystery
He said: Show me the way, don’t give up on me today, see, I tried, if anybody’s listening?
But they’re broken down now as he lies in the ground, they tried
They just weren’t stronger than the whiskey

There he goes again, slave to the drink
The bottle’s now empty as he tries not to think
There he goes, again

She says: Don’t give in now, we still need you, I still need you around
He says: I don’t know how, but I still need you to save me somehow
There he goes, again

Worse for the wear, empty glass, empty stare, and he tried, to outrun his history
And his kids and his wife fought like hell for his life, they tried, in the end it ain’t a mystery
He said: Show me the way, don’t give up on me today, see, I tried, if anybody’s listening?
But they’re broken down now as he lies in the ground, he tried
He wasn’t stronger than the whiskey
He wasn’t stronger than the whiskey
