There must be a demon in that bottle
It's been stealing my money all night long
I'm down to a dollar on my paycheck
But it's all been going to a worthy cause
Damn the whiskey
For making me feel so good
To hell with the honky tonks for doing what they should
It's the price you pay, but that's okay
Helps a working man get by
Come Monday there'll be forty hours waiting
I'll bust my back right over the hump somehow
By the time the eagle flies on Friday
I'll be setting myself up for another round
Damn the whiskey
For making me feel so good
To hell with the honky tonks for doing what they should
It's the price you pay, but that's okay
Helps a working man get by
That cocktail baby, she just caught
Me looking a second time
One more shot and I'll be looking
For a way to make her mine
Damn the whiskey
To hell with the honky tonks
Damn the whiskey
For making me feel so good
To hell with the honky tonks for doing what they should
It's the price you pay, but that's okay
Helps a working man get by
