I've been walkin' straight too long On a thin, sharp line, fading, almost gone Feelin' my shadow get close Even it knows there's a hot rain comin' on And I, I'm drinkin' tonight Gonna give up the fight The only thing stronger than you is whiskey I, I'm lettin' you in The ghost of my sin And the taste of goodbye on your lips when you kissed me Till I can't take anymore Poison's the cure To hell with your memory, gonna burn it down I choke back tears till I damn near drown What do you do with a man with dirt on his hands And a deep hole dug in the ground And I, I'm drinkin' tonight Gonna give up the fight The only thing stronger than you is whiskey I, I'm lettin' you in The ghost of my sin And the taste of goodbye on your lips when you kissed me Till I can't take anymore Poison's the cure I'm chasin' my demons with a shout of crown Let them all have their way Till I see the light of day But tonight, I'm drinkin' tonight Gonna give up the fight The only thing stronger than you is whiskey I, I'm lettin' you in The ghost of my sin And the taste of goodbye on your lips when you kissed me I can't take anymore I hope the poison's the cure I can't take anymore I hope the poison's the cure
