Whiskey In Reverse

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I'm sittin' on a rerun couch Lookin' 'round at an empty house Hungover, tryin' to figure out Just how the hell that I got here Can't blame it on Colorado Tanqueray, no reposado I could try but I know that I sure Can't blame it on ice cold beer [Pre-Chorus] There's an empty Jack bottle by the coffee cup Did a lot more hurt than good Girl, I know that I can't fill it back up But if I could [Chorus] You'd be backin' in the driveway You'd be un-sayin', "I'm leavin'" I'd be pullin' my fist from the drywall Watchin' my bloody knuckles start healin' I wouldn't have a worst enemy I'd be un-slammin' that bedroom door It'd be a better version of me Like I used to be, like I was before Your bags are packed and your keys were in your purse If I could drink whiskey in reverse [Verse 2] If I could keep turnin' back time To my seventeen-self And tell me the first pull of that stuff would lead you to leavin' I would've drank anything else [Pre-Chorus] Oh, but that ain't the case I took it down like a wild-eyed country boy would Girl, and I know I can't fill it back up But if I could [Chorus] You'd be backin' in the driveway You'd be un-sayin', "I'm leavin'" I'd be pullin' my fist from the drywall Watchin' my bloody knuckles start healin' I wouldn't have a worst enemy I'd be un-slammin' that bedroom door It'd be a better version of me Like I used to be, like I was before Your bags are packed and your keys were in your purse If I could drink whiskey in reverse [Bridge] It's a damn shame, the sun don't set in the East 'Cause that's the only way, you'd come back to me [Chorus] You'd be backin' in the driveway You'd be un-sayin', "I'm leavin'" I'd be pullin' my fist from the drywall Watchin' my bloody knuckles start healin' I wouldn't have a worst enemy I'd be un-slammin' that bedroom door It'd be a better version of me Like I used to be, like I was before Your bags are packed and your keys were in your purse If I could drink whiskey in reverse
