[Verse 1]There's a tear in the mud on the banks of the riverAnd the sound of a lover's goodbyeAnd a pain in my heart 'cause I could not forgive herThat's as deep as the river is wideI'm lost and I'm lonesome when I look in the mirrorI don't like the man that I seeAnd the more that I look, the more it gets clearerPride made a fool out of me[Chorus]So I drink all nightBut the hurtin' won't stopAnd every shot I take just turns into teardropsAnd I lay down to sleepAnd I pray I don't open my eyesTo a whiskey sunrise[Verse 2]The cold wind blows and the leaves start to scatterAnd the rain will be comin' on soonAnd everything's wrong and nothing don't matterAnd a black cloud is crossin' the moon[Chorus]So I drink all nightBut the hurtin' won't stopAnd every shot I take just turns into teardropsAnd I lay down to sleepAnd I pray I don't open my eyesTo a whiskey sunrise
