Whiskey, Whiskey

Kris Kristofferson · Original Album Classics [2009]

(Tom Ghent)



She's a little bit of the sunshine

Just before it rains

A little like this quiet night

Before the cold winds came.



She's a little bit like the weather

I never know when she's gonna change

She's a part of my heart

And a whole lot of my pain.



So whiskey, whiskey my old friend

I've come to talk with you again

Milk of mercy plase be kind

Drive this feeling from my mind.



Don't you know somehow

Her smile can make the day begin

She'd take away this mask of grey

And let the sun shine in.



Now I find that I've been blinded

By the cold and winter wind

She disguised behind her eyes

Oh, what a fool I've been.



So whiskey, whiskey my old friend

I've come to talk with you again

Milk of mercy plase be kind

Drive this feeling from my mind.



Whiskey, whiskey my old friend

I've come to talk with you again

Milk of mercy plase be kind

Drive this feeling from my mind...
