Whiskey won't you come and take my troubles
Cause I can't seem to do it on my own
In the morning there is hours and infinity
The starlit evening's come to take me home
I ain't got a dime in my pocket
and I just stepped on my last cigarette
But there's a bar downtown that'll give me credit
A home away from home, away I went
Tomorrow there's a train to Carolina
Tomorrow that's where I'm gonna go
To feel the warm sunshine on my shoulder
and live my days a free and easy soul
My home is with the hills and trees around me
My ceiling holds the moon and stars above
So I'll never be a lone man a' walking
I'll never live one day without love
So whiskey won't you come and take my troubles
Cause I can't seem to do it on my own
In the morning there is hours and infinity
The starlit evening's come to take me home
The starlit evening's come to take me home
