Too Much Whiskey - Marcus King

Too Much Whiskey - Marcus King Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Too much of that ol' Whiskey River
Leaves a young man feeling old
That old love you still remember
Cuts you deep down in your soul

[Verse 2]
Lost that girl down in New Orleans
Chasing some old voodoo dream
Levee broke on Whiskey River
Got me trying to swim upstream

[Chorus]
Getting tired of going crazy
Headed back, Tennessee
I gotta crawl on out of this river
'Fore it drowns me in the sea

[Verse 3]
Shotgun Willie on the stereo
Words are speaking right to my heart
If I keep reaching for that bottle
It’s gonna tear my world apart

[Chorus]
Getting tired of going crazy
Headin' back, Tennessee
I gotta crawl on out of that river
'Fore it drowns me in the sea, ah-ha

[Verse 4]
One more cup of coffee
Old Cafe Du Monde
Get my head together
Ride my Cadillac back home

[Chorus]
Getting tired of going crazy
Headed home to Tennessee
I gotta crawl on out of that river
'Fore it drown me in the sea

[Outro]
I gotta crawl on out of this river
'Fore it drown me in the sea, ah-ha
Woo-hoo-hoo
