JACK DANIELS IF YOU PLEASE KNOCK ME TO MY KNEES

YOUR THE ONLY FRIEND THERE'S HAS EVER BEEN

THAT DIDN'T DO ME WRONG

JACK DANIELS IF YOU PLEASE KNOCK ME TO MY KNEES

YOU CAN KILL THIS PAIN THAT'S DRIVING ME INSANE

SINCE MY BABIES GONE


CIGARETTES AND WHISKEY CALM MY SHAKING HANDS

I JUST LOST A LOVER TO A ONE NIGHT STAND

SOMETHING TEMPORARY TO LATE I HAD TO LEARN

IT WASN'T MEANT TO LAST, I LOST HER TO THE PAST

A BRIDGE SHE COULDN'T BURN


PROMISES WERE BROKEN DREAMS WERE TO DIE

EMPTY WORDS WERE SPOKEN TEARS WERE IN OUR EYES

SOMETHING TEMPORARY THOSE FEARS WILL FADE AWAY

PLEASE DO THE BEST YOU CAN TO HELP ME UNDERSTAND

THESE GAMES THAT PEOPLE PLAY
