Whiskey River Blues

By Iwasnearlythere
Empty chair at the table
Another hero gone
War took my brother
Left us all alone
Mama cries softly
Since daddy shipped away
Heard the news this morning
Ain't no easy day

[Chorus]
Whiskey river blues
Washing over me
Drowning all the sorrows
Can't you see
Whiskey river blues
Night after night
Trying to forget the darkness
Searching for some light

[Verse 2]
Jimmy came back different
Eyes that saw too much
Stares right through you
Loses his touch
Heard the screams still echo
Inside his troubled head
Wishes he could unsee
The faces of the dead

[Chorus]
Whiskey river blues
Washing over me
Drowning all the sorrows
Can't you see
Whiskey river blues
Night after night
Trying to forget the darkness
Searching for some light

[Bridge]
Bottle after bottle
Trying to numb the pain
But every morning sunshine
Brings it all again
A ghost in the mirror
Haunted by the past
This whiskey river flowing
Moves too fast

[Chorus]
Whiskey river blues
Washing over me
Drowning all the sorrows
Can't you see
Whiskey river blues
Night after night
Trying to forget the darkness
Searching for some light
