She put him out,
Like the burning end of a midnight cigarette,
She broke his heart,
He spent his whole life trying to forget,
We watched him drink his pain away a little at a time,
But he never could get drunk enough to get her off his mind,
Untill the night,
Corus:
He put that bottle to his head and pulled the trigger,
And finally drank away her memory,
Life is short but this time it was bigger,
Than the strengh he had to get up off his knees,
We found him with his face down in the pillow,
With a note that said "I'll love her 'till I die."
And when we burried him beneath the willow,
The angles sang the Whisky Lullaby,
Lalalalalalala
Lalalalalalalaaaaaa
Lalalalalalala
Lalalalalalalaaaaaa
The room was blue,
But nobody knew how much she blamed herself,
For years and years,
She tried to hide the whisky on her breath,
She finally drank her pain away a little at a time,
But she never could get drunk enough to get him off her mind,
Untill the night
Corus:
She put that bottle to her head and pulled the trigger,
And finally drank away his memory,
Life is short but this time it was bigger,
Than the strengh she had to get up off her knees,
We found her with her face down in the pillow,
Clinging to his picture for dear life,
We laid her next to him beneath the willow,
While the angles sang the Whisky Lullaby,
Lalalalalalala
Lalalalalalalaaaaaa
Lalalalalalala
Lalalalalalalaaaaaa
