David Allen Coe Whiskey And Woman lyrics

I've got this weakness for women and whiskey
It's something I just can't control
I've tried hard to shake it with out any luck
It keeps burning deep in my soul

I thought you could change things
And while you were with me
I never loved no one but you
But it's gonna take more than whiskey and women
To make me forget that we're through

Baby, sometimes at night when I reach out to touch you
I wake up chilled to the bone
There are so many things I can't get used to
Specially being alone

I built my whole world around you
And now that you're gone

I don't know what to do
But it's gonna take more than whiskey and women
To make me forget that we're through

I found me a woman to lay down beside me
She offered her body and soul
And I took them hoping for some silly reason
She'd help me regain self control

I left like a thief in the night
When the first light of dawn
Turned the gray skies to blue
I sobered up knowing she'd never be able
To make me forget that were through
