We pick up in New York City Tryin' to find the man I never got to be When I push down on the pavement I found the whole thing so much harder than it seems
The only deal I ever signed No devil drew a dotted line The stage was set, the words were mine I'm not complaining
Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey Water, water, water Sleep Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey Wake up, shake it off And repeat
It's just a phase It's not forever It's just a phase But I still might have a ways to go
Every night around this time My friends and I, we treat it like a race When I really start to break it down I wouldn't trust a girl who knew about this place
Walking home with no one left Speak softly underneath my breath Hey world, you ain't seen nothing yet Great, now it's raining
Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey Water, water, water Sleep Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey Wake up, shake it off And repeat
It's just a phase It's not forever It's just a phase But I still might have a ways
Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey Water, water, water Sleep Dreamed somebody missed me Wake up, shake it off And repeat it, repeat it, repeat after me
Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey Water, water, water Sleep Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey Cut me off and pour me in the street
Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey Water, water, water Sleep
