Lyrics George Jones

George Jones

Tennessee Whiskey

I used to spend my nights out in a bar room

Liquor was the only love I've known

But you rescued me from reaching

For the bottle

And you brought me back from

Being too far gone.

You're as smooth as Tennessee whiskey

You're as sweet as strawberry wine

You're as warm as a glass of brandy

And I stay stoned on your love all the time.

I looked for love in all the same old places

Found the bottom of the bottle always dry

But when you poured out your heart

I didn't waste it

'Cause there nothing like your love

To get me high.

You're as smooth as Tennessee whiskey

You're as sweet as strawberry wine

You're as warm as a glass of brandy

And I stay stoned on your love all the time.

I stay stoned on your love all the time...
