Whiskey Basin Blues

On a snow covered night up in eastern Wyoming

Another lazy day looking for the sun

In a drafty old cabin outside of Whiskey Basin

Another shinin' light and a good man on the run

There's a lady back in Marilee

And a reason no one else can see

For him to spend a winter on his own

Nothing much to do tomorrow

Just a matter of survival

Another friendly fight in a life chock full of fun

It's a special kind of medicine

And all that you can do is win

Though the taste is sweet you can't refuse

Put your heart on the table

Fill your cup with moonshine

Another taste of the Whiskey Basin blues
