Jay Webb Til The Smoke Clears Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Word gets 'round, no, it don't take long
For a map-dot town to start to talk
On a barstool, I can hear 'em whisper
On and on about the shit you do to me

[Verse 2]
Heard you ain't been home in a couple nights
Through the smoke-filled air, them rumors flying
On and on about the holes inside your alibi
How could you do that shit to me?

[Chorus]
I'll sip that whiskey down the road
Half as strong and twice as cold
As the eyes in my reflection
Wasted years of second-guessing
Tonight, I can't control
What dies out or what unfolds
Blacktop and your memory ends here
Light one up and sit here
Until the smoke clears

[Post-Chorus]
Woah-woah
Woah-woah

[Verse 3]
When thе smoke settles down, I'll alrеady be gone, gone, gone
Ain't a judge in the town that won't say you did me wrong, wrong, wrong Black Label on the bench seat, ain't quite empty
I saved the last damn drop for you

[Chorus]
I'll sip that whiskey down the road
Half as strong and twice as cold
As the eyes in my reflection
Wasted years of second-guessing
Tonight, I can't control
What dies out or what unfolds
Blacktop and your memory ends here
Light one up and sit here
Until the smoke clears

[Post-Chorus]
Woah-woah
Woah-woah
Until the smoke clears
Woah-woah
Woah-woah

[Chorus]
I'll sip that whiskey down the road
Half as strong and twice as cold
As the eyes in my reflection
Wasted years of second-guessing
Tonight, I can't control
What dies out or what unfolds
Blacktop and your memory ends here
Light one up and sit here
Until the smoke clears

[Outro]
Woah-woah
Woah-woah
Until the smoke clears
