Erin Enderlin – When I’m Drinking Whiskey Lyrics

Verse 1
I hear you asking,
what am I having?
I’m drinking Jack on the rocks
You can buy one from me
but boy you might be better off

That blonde at the table,
for she might be able
To give you a smile that you want
Don’t mean to be rude,
I’m just not in the mood for small talk

Chorus
If it was red wine,
you’d be just fine
Cause I’d be on top of the world
If I was sippin’ on beer,
and you walked in here
I might be your girl

You can light up my smoke but don’t get too close
Cause tonight, this broken heart’s busy
And I’m thinking ’bout him
when I’m drinking whiskey

Verse 2
Closing with caution,
çuz I’ve hit the bottle
Of weighing more just this glass
When I’m drinking double,
That light in the tunnel
Starts fading fast

Don’t get me wrong,
these days I’ve moved on
Some nights, I missed what we had
That ain’t a proof but
just knows how to turn the clock back

Chorus
If it was red wine,
you’d be just fine
Cause I’d be on top of the world
If I was sippin’ on beer,
and you walked in here
I might be your girl

You can light up my smoke but don’t get too close
Cause tonight, this broken heart’s busy
And I’m thinking ’bout him
when I’m drinking whiskey

You can light up my smoke but don’t get too close
Cause tonight, this broken heart’s busy
I’m thinking ’bout him when I’m drinking whiskey
Oh I’m missing him when I’m drinking whiskey
