There’s a tear in the mud on the banks of the river

And the sound of a lover’s goodbye

And a pain in my heart ’cause I could not forgive her

That’s as deep as the river is wide

I’m lost and I’m lonesome when I look in the mirror

I don’t like the man that I see

And the more that I look the more it gets clearer

Pride made a fool out of me

So I drink all night

But the hurting won’t stop

And every shot I take just turns into teardrops

And I lay down to sleep

And I pray I don’t open my eyes

To a whiskey sunrise

The cold wind blows and the leaves start to scatter

And the rain will be coming on soon

Everything’s wrong and nothing don’t matter

A black cloud is crossing the moon

So i drink all night

But the hurting won’t stop

And every shot I take just turns into teardrops

And I lay down to sleep

And I pray I don’t open my eyes

To a whiskey sunrise
