We pick up in New York City
I try to find the man I never got to be
As I push down on the pavement
Find the whole thing so much harder than it seems
The only deal I ever signed
No devil drew a dotted line
The stage was set, the words were mine
I'm not complaining
[Chorus:]
Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey
Water, water, water
Sleep
Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey
Wake up, shake it off
And repeat
It's just a phase
It's not forever
It's just a phase
And I still might have a ways to go
Every night around this time
My friends and I retreated like a race
When I really start to break it down
I wouldn't trust a girl who knew about this place
Walking home with nothing left
Speak softly underneath my breath
"Hey world, you ain't seen nothing yet"
Great, now it's raining
[Chorus:]
Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey
Water, water, water
Sleep
Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey
Wake up, shake it off
And repeat
It's just a phase
It's not forever
It's just a phase
But I still might have a ways...
Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey
Water, water, water
Sleep
Dreamed somebody missed me
Wake up, shake it off
And repeat it, repeat it, repeat after me
Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey
Water, water, water
Sleep
Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey
Cut me off and pour me in the street
Whiskey, whiskey, whiskey
Water, water, water
Sleep
