Johnny Dailey – Burns Like Whiskey Lyrics

Verse 1
Don’t know what it is
But something just hit me right now
And just like that
My mind rolls back
Across them tracks
To what used to be our side of town
Whoa, girl, every time I let my myself go
Down this road

Chorus
It sounds like Seger on the radio running
Down another sunset crew cab loving
Up to Fort Payne where your mama use to stay
It taste like a shared cigarette on the levy
Easy and free, young wild, and ready
Baby, your memory
Feels like summer and burns like whiskey

Verse 2
Whenever I let that 90 proof hit my lips
It’s a surefire shortcut
To a no tr?spass sign
And a night that a heart can’t easily forget
Whoa, young lov?rs losing all control

Chorus
It sounds like Seger on the radio running
Down another sunset crew cab loving
Up to Fort Payne where your mama use to stay
It taste like a shared cigarette on the levy
Easy and free, young wild, and ready
Baby, your memory
Feels like summer and burns like whiskey

Bridge
I ain’t missing you
I ain’t missing us
There’s just something simple ’bout the way it was

Outro
And it sounds like Seger on the radio running
Down another sunset crew cab loving
Up to Fort Payne where your mama use to stay
It taste like a shared cigarette on the levy
Easy and free, young wild, and ready
Baby, your memory
Feels like summer and burns like whiskey
Like whiskey
