I Gave My Heart To Whiskey (McDonnell)
I gave my heart to whiskey
Tennessee and Mary-Jane
I gave my heart to whiskey
Southern rye and cocaine
When whiskey is your woman
You are in a world of pain
I seen all the bars in London
And I tried to drink them dry
Said I seen all the bars in London town
And I tried to drink them dry
I went down to my doctor and he said
If you don’t stop you gonna die
I used to be a lover
Used to ride my luck
Used to be a working man
Down by the dock
I used to be a lover
Steady job and a place to live
I’m gonna drink down this little bottle
Cause now it’s all that I have
All gone to whiskey
Oh Lord what I done?
All gone to whiskey
Gone, gone, gone
I’m gonna get myself a drink now
Cause this is Valentine’s day
I’m gonna get myself a drink now
Every day is Valentine’s day
All I want is that little bottle
Please don’t take my heart away
I gave my heart to whiskey ……
