Lyrics
Whiskey Bay
Written by: Drew Rice
Well I?m out on Whiskey Bay, but it?s only in my mind
I?m sitting on this barstool trying to find
Some sort of answer, maybe a course to take
I?m a vessel lost at sea, with a troublesome wake
So pour me, another round
I?m trying to keep this sinking ship from going down
And though there are storm clouds all around me
In here there is no rain
And I?m taking on the whiskey to ease the pain
She was blue clear skies, and calm seas
And the day she left, well that kicked up the breeze
Now the gale winds are blowing, the seas are larger
So I sail in here each night, to find safe harbor
So pour me, another round
I?m trying to keep this sinking ship from going down
And though there are storm clouds all around me
In here there is no rain
And I?m taking on the whiskey to ease the pain
Oh I know there will come a day
When I can?t bail no more
I just hope I?m strong enough
To swim ashore
So won?t you pour me, another round?
I?m trying to keep this sinking ship from going down
And though there are storm clouds all around me
In here there is no rain
And I?m taking on the whiskey to ease the pain
Yeah there are storm clouds all around me
So I?ll wait for a brighter day
Until then I?ll be out on Whiskey Bay
