Whiskey Song

He lives down by the river
 In an old run down shack
 Spends his life day by day
 Just trying to get back
 To when he was a young man
 And everything was fine
 You got to keep moving on
 Just to catch up with the time
 I've seen him out on the railroad tracks
 Without a penny to his name
 And it seems here later Lord
 Things just ain't the same
 Not a care in this world
 Nobody else to blame
 But you know that whiskey Lord
 It just keeps rolling through his veins
 Living life all alone
 No place to call home
 And if he's gone tomorrow
 Hell no one would ever know
 Said he had a family
 Oh before they moved him on
 But somehow they all disappeared
 Before they called him home
 Lord ain't it funny
 How they could rob a man so blind
 And take everything he had
 He could barely stay alive
 Doing the best he can
 Before he goes insane
 But you know that whiskey Lord
 It just keeps rolling through his veins
 Lord ain't it funny
 How they could rob a man so blind
 And take everything he had
 He could barely stay alive
 Doing the best he can
 Before he goes insane
 But you know that whiskey Lord
 It just keeps running through his veins
 Man he got to keep on keeping on
 Yeah on and on
