WHISKEY BLUES song lyrics
by Joel Sattler

God bless the bottle
God bless the proof
whiskey has saved me
from the sins of my youth
when all else was a lie
the spirit was truth
God bless the bottle
God bless the proof

Johnny Walker's my pastor
Jack Daniel's my friend
bourbon has saved me
again and again
and though every glass
must come to an end
just fill it back up
and I'll tell you when

I tried many times
to live my life straight
to live my life sober
free of sorrow and hate
but after a while
the pain gets too great
and I reach for the blood
and transubstantiate

o whiskey o whiskey
I thank God for you
you're the only one left
the only one that's been true
and if I should die
and if it comes soon
I'll know the right place
by the shine of the moon

God bless the bottle
God bless the proof
whiskey has saved me
from the sins of my youth
when all else was a lie
the spirit was truth
God bless the bottle
God bless the proof

An anthem for alcoholics. It seems the country and western crowd would really love this one. You are really cranking out some good ones lately. I'm surprised no one else is commenting. I guess they're looking for you to comment on their "greatest" latest poem.
