Oh Jack Daniels eat your heart out

I've found something twice as good

I found love and I found honour

though I never thought I would,

With you tugging on my coat tails

and whispering in my ear

go on have another JD

go on have another beer,

Well I thought you were my buddy

but you're a monkey on my back

you took me to the gutter

and you left me down there Jack,

You took away my self respect

you trampled on my pride

but when I hit the bottom

that's when I seen the face of Christ,

And I begged him for salvation

though I never thought he would

Oh' Jack Daniels eat you heart out

I've found something twice as good,

Now I ain't saying you don't temp me

yes you do, and that's a fact

but I remember how it feels

to wake up flat upon my back,

With my pockets full of empty

and mouth full of whiskey breath

and the morning frost so bitter

it's like to freeze a man to death,

Oh' Jack Daniels, Oh' Jack Daniels

you're the Devil in desguise

deep in the pits of Hades

you're destilled and liquified,

And I wished to God

I'd had the strength of mind to turn you down

before you took this world of mine

and turned it all around,

And I thank my God and Jesus Christ

they heard me when I prayed

helped me get back to me feet

washed my sins away,

Helped me be the kind of man

I never thought I could,

Jack Daniels eat your heart out

I've found something twice as good.
