Amy Robbins - Blame the Whiskey Lyrics

You were strung out on whiskey
And I was standing at the gate
You said that you'd miss me
I said "Honey, that's your first mistake"

In between sirens and the sheets
Are promises my heart could never keep

If you could learn to love yourself
Put the bottle back on the shelf
Maybe then you wouldn't feel so alone and empty (couldve just been the whiskey)
The moon is high and whiskey flows
You've got the reddest eyes and the whitest snow
You should've just broke up with me (could've just been the whiskey)

In between the sirens and the sheets
Are promises my lips could never keep

You should've just broke up with me
While you had the chance
It could've just been the whiskey
No shot of straight romance
You should've just broke up with me, darlin'
Now you can't blame the whiskey

Drivin' south to Floral City
You left me standin' in the rain
Said you weren't going with me
That I should learn to self sustain

You said cheatin' hearts are all the same
Vows are dirty words all wrapped in vein

In between the sirens and sheets
Are promises my lips could never keep

You should've just broke up with me
While you had the chance
It could've just been the whiskey
No shot of straight romance
You should've just broke up with me, darlin'
Go on and blame the whiskey
I'm gonna blame the whiskey
Another shot at straight romance
You were strung out on whiskey
And I was standin' at the gate
