- Tennessee Whiskey LyricsI used to spend my nights out in a barroom
Liquor was the only love I'd known
But you rescued me from reachin' for the bottom, baby
And you brought me back from being too far gone.
CHORUS:
And you're as smooth as TENNESSEE WHISKEY
You're as sweet as strawberry wine
You're as warm as a glass of brandy
And I stay stoned on your love all the time
Oh, I looked for love in all the same old places
Found the bottom of the bottle always dry
So when you poured out your heart I didn't waste it
'Cause there's nothing like your love to get me high
CHORUS:
Baby, You're as smooth as TENNESSEE WHISKEY
You're as sweet as strawberry wine
You're as warm as a glass of brandy
And I stay stoned on your love all the time
Honey, You're as smooth as TENNESSEE WHISKEY
You're as sweet as strawberry wine
You're as warm as a glass of brandy
And I stay stoned on your love all the time
Liquor was the only love I'd known
But you rescued me from reachin' for the bottom, baby
And you brought me back from being too far gone.
CHORUS:
And you're as smooth as TENNESSEE WHISKEY
You're as sweet as strawberry wine
You're as warm as a glass of brandy
And I stay stoned on your love all the time
Oh, I looked for love in all the same old places
Found the bottom of the bottle always dry
So when you poured out your heart I didn't waste it
CHORUS:
Baby, You're as smooth as TENNESSEE WHISKEY
You're as sweet as strawberry wine
You're as warm as a glass of brandy
And I stay stoned on your love all the time
Honey, You're as smooth as TENNESSEE WHISKEY
You're as sweet as strawberry wine
You're as warm as a glass of brandy
And I stay stoned on your love all the time
