Текст песни It Ain’t The Whiskey - Jake Worthington

Last night, we's headed home 'bout a quarter 'til ten
I guess I swerved just a little where the road didn't bend
I didn't see the law, but the law saw me
I heard, "I represent the state of Tennessee"

He said, "You must be buzzin' on somethin' son"
I said I am, but it ain't what you're thinkin' of

It ain't the whiskey that gets me
Lookin' like I'm out of my mind
When she kissed me, it hit me
Harder than some hillbilly shine
If you're thinkin' I've been drinkin', there's a little bitty reason
That I'm speakin' just a little tongue-tied
It ain't the whiskey, it's the woman by my side

He said, "Son, I've heard it all, step on out of that truck
Say the alphabet backwards and don't mess it up"
I only got as far as 3-4-2
He said, "That's close enough, I'm arrestin' you"

I knew he didn't buy a single word I said
'Til she flashed him a smile and his face turned red

It ain't the whiskey that gets me
Lookin' like I'm out of my mind
When she kissed me, it hit me
Harder than some hillbilly shine
If you're thinkin' I've been drinkin', there's a little bitty reason
That I'm speakin' just a little tongue-tied
It ain't the whiskey, it's the woman by my side

Oh, I get a little dizzy every time I get her with me
Don't you make me try to walk a straight line
It ain't the whiskey, it's the woman by my side
Lord, it ain't the whiskey, it's the woman by my side
