There´s a tear in the mud on the banks of the river
And the sound of a lover´s goodbye
And a pain in my heart ´cause I could not forgive her

That´s as deep as the river is wide
I´m lost and I´m lonesome when I look in the mirror
I don´t like the man that I see
And the more that I look, the more it gets clearer
Pride made a fool out of me

So I drink all night
But the hurtin´ won´t stop
And every shot I take just turns into teardrops
And I lay down to sleep
And I pray I don´t open my eyes
To a whiskey sunrise

The cold wind blows and the leaves start to scatter
And the rain will be comin´ on soon

And everything´s wrong and nothing don´t matter
And a black cloud is crossin´ the moon

So I drink all night
But the hurtin´ won´t stop
And every shot I take just turns into teardrops
And I lay down to sleep
And I pray I don´t open my eyes
To a whiskey sunrise
