I Wish This Sad Song Wasn't Mine Lyrics

If whiskey flowed down Whiskey River,
I'd drink that river dry.
Then fill it back up again,
with these tears from my eyes.

I saw you at Whiskey River,
kissin your ol' friend.
You looked happy in his arms.
Guess you're still in love with him.

"Girl", you're married to another.
What you're doin just ain't right.
I saw him cryin in a bar room,
drinkin whiskey half the night.

(Short Brake)

He took off his wedding ring.
Said I don't want this thing.
He downed a shot of whiskey,
then I heard him sing:

I drink my whiskey from a bottle,
one shot at a time.
While I'm singing to the bar-maid,
I wish this sad song wasn't mine.

I get my lovin from the bar-maid,
one bottle at a time.
While I'm singing to the whiskey,
I wish this sad song wasn't mine.

(Short Brake)

He slipped the bar-maid a twenty.
Rolled up in it was his ring.
As the bar-maid poured more whiskey,
she cried when she heard him sing:

"Girl", you're married to another.
What you're doin just ain't right.
You've, got me cryin in bar rooms,
drinkin whiskey half the night.

If whiskey flowed down Whiskey River.
I'd drink that river dry.
Then fill it back up again,
with all these tears from my eyes.

I drink my whiskey from a bottle.
I wish this sad song wasn't mine.
