It won't hurt when I fall down from this bar stool
It won't hurt when I stumble in the street
It won't hurt 'cause this whiskey eases misery
Even whiskey cannot ease your hurtin' me
Today I had another bout with sorrow
You know this time I almost won
If this bottle would just hold out 'til tomorrow
I know that I would have sorrow on the run
It won't hurt when I fall down from this bar stool
It won't hurt when I stumble in the street
It won't hurt 'cause this whiskey eases misery
Even whiskey cannot ease your hurtin' me
Your memory comes back up with each sunrise
I reach up for the bottle and find it's gone
Yeah lord somewhere every night the whiskey leaves me
To face this cold cold world on my own
It won't hurt when I fall down from this bar stool
It won't hurt when I stumble in the street
It won't hurt 'cause this whiskey eases misery
Even whiskey cannot ease your hurtin' me
Even whiskey cannot ease your hurtin' me
Even whiskey cannot ease your hurtin' me
