Whiskey and shame,
Hope and pain,
These are the little things that make life so great
Like family and love,
Then losing it all,
Only a tortured soul knows how to fall,
Ba da ba da dah da dah da.
Ba da ba da dah da dah da.
Ba da bah da dah.
It's like judging the man that can't carry his weight,
When you don't know what it was that made him that way
It's easy to throw stones, to break homes,
But I'll take an honest man with a simple plan,
And leave him alone.
Whiskey and shame, hope and pain.
Whiskey and shame, hope and pain.
