lyrics

One pair of boots one chair sitting on the back porch
Silent is the night like the pictures on the wall
Whiskey bottle in one hand, shot glass in the other
Alone the bridge has burnt down, she's not coming home

She's a heart breaker, he's a whiskey chaser
Forever promises broken she cut him loose
Whiskey warms the belly but leaves the heart cold
Now she's long gone and the bottle is empty

He's chasing whiskey shots instead of chasing her
Hiding his feelings in the bottom of the bottle
Thoughts are in his head, no stopping him now
He's one shot away to the bottle is empty

She's a heart breaker, he's a whiskey chaser
Forever promises broken she cut him loose
Whiskey warms the belly but leaves the heart cold
Now she's long gone and the bottle is empty

Just like oil and water whiskey and love don't mix
Now he's flying solo and the bottle is empty

She's a heart breaker, he's a whiskey chaser
Forever promises broken she cut him loose
Whiskey warms the belly but leaves the heart cold
Now she's long gone

She's a heart breaker, he's a whiskey chaser
Forever promises broken she cut him loose
Whiskey warms the belly but leaves the heart cold
Now she's long gone and the bottle is empty

Now she's long gone and the bottle is empty
