about

I wrote this fun song after playing support for a run of shows with a band who drank a LOT of whisky! I hate the bloody stuff (but 'Beer Feet' would definitely not sound as good!).

lyrics

My head’s spinnin’ round and I don’t know what to do
The whisky it ain’t strong enough to make me forget you
Never been a thinker, my heart it rules my head
But I’m a damn good drinker and it’s gonna see me dead

(Chorus)
Now I can’t walk in a line and my eyes ain’t seein’ straight
You know that come the morning I’ll be wakin’ in a state
The bottle’s lyin’ empty, I must have had a few
And I curse my whisky feet they’re gonna walk me back
Walk me back to you

The whisky’s runnin’ through my veins now I can’t feel my hands
Between you and the demon drink you ruin all my plans
Every time I think I’m in control and I am strong
The whisky rears its ugly head and tries to prove me wrong

(Chorus)

Between you and the whisky, you got me on the line
I know I should head on home when it’s closin’ time
But somethin’ in my head it says just have a little more
And then my whisky feet they find their way back to your door

Oh I wish I was sober, then you could go to hell
‘Cause baby I ain’t interested in what you got to sell
But now I’m steamin’ drunk and well you know that means you win
‘Cause my whisky feet are gonna find your frickin’ door again

(Chorus)

Now they’ve found your door again just like they always do
I curse my whisky feet they’ve gone and walked me back to you
