When trouble comes knockin'
Beatin' down your front door
When the devil starts stalkin'
One thing holds the cureDrink your whiskey down
Put sorrow in the ground
Drink your whiskey down
When no life can be found
Drink your whiskey downIf you've had an evil woman
Use you and leave you for dead
Don't hang your head in sorrow
Just pick up that bottle insteadDrink your whiskey down
Put sorrow in the ground
Drink your whiskey down
When no life can be found
Drink your whiskey downWhen those cold winds are blowin'
Good times have come and went
Life's dealt a losin' hand, child
But one thing remains a sure betDrink your whiskey down
Put sorrow in the ground
Drink your whiskey down
When no life can be found
Drink your whiskey downDrink your whiskey down
Let's all drink our whiskey down
Come on now boys
Let's drink our whiskey down
