Spend my time waiting tables
Crunching numbers and I'm grateful
That I've got enough money to eat
Still smoke my stale cigarettes
The type you hated
Just to forget
Any trace of you that's left on me
I need something stronger
To get me through the night
Cause I can't fall asleep with you on my mind
Working for the whiskey
But it don't work for me
The room may be spinning but you're all I see
Up all night walking the floors
Talking to walls but I hear your voice
Drink till I forget the part where you leave
I've been working for the whiskey
But the whiskey ain't working for me
Make enough to just get by
Things are tough not gonna lie
But I've been doing ok here for a while
Every now and then I hear your name
See someone with your face
I'll be damned if I don't hurt the same
I need something stronger
To get me through the night
Cause can't fall asleep with you on my mind
Working for the whiskey
But it don't work for me
The room may be spinning but you're all I see
Up all night walking the floors
Talking to walls but I hear your voice
Drink till I forget the part where you leave
I've been working for the whiskey
But the whiskey ain't working for me
Oooo
Working for the whiskey
But it don't work for me
The room may be spinning but you're all I see
Up all night walking the floors
Talking to walls but I hear your voice
Drink till I forget the part where you leave
I've been working for the whiskey
But the whiskey ain't working for me
