I've tried all the cool meditations
Talked to friends till our faces turned blue
I've swallowed the shrink's medications
But when I'm missin' you, I need my old go-to

So pass me a bottle and I won't refuse it
Put Patsy on vinyl and good Lord, I'll lose it
No, nothing takes the edge off when I'm goin' through it
Like whiskey and country music

One gets me drunk as a possum
The other one pours in a glass
They both pair quite nicely but lonesome
And too much of either one and I'm showing my ass

Just pass me a bottle and I won't refuse it
Put Patsy on vinyl and good Lord, I'll lose it
No, nothing takes the edge off when I'm goin' through it
Like whiskey and country music

The older, the better
They go down good together
Honey, wherever you are tonight
I don't give a damn, I got a drink in my hand
And enough in the jukebox to last me all night

Pass me a bottle and I won't refuse it
Put Patsy on vinyl and good Lord, I'll lose it
No, nothing takes the edge off when I'm goin' through it
Like whiskey and country music
Whiskey and country music
