Drinkin' Dark Whiskey

Drinkin' dark whiskey

And tellin' white lies

One leads to another

On Saturday night

Don't you cross your heart

Unless you hope to die

Drinkin' dark whiskey

And tellin' white lies

The first drop burns

But the second one goes down smooth

Then that old Black Label gets a hold of you

It'll loosen your tongue, but it never tells the truth

I'm drinkin' dark whiskey

Tellin' white lies

One leads to another

On a Saturday night

Don't you cross your heart

Unless you hope to die

Drinkin' dark whiskey

And tellin' white lies

When the bottle starts talkin'

Be careful what he might say

He talks in the dark like he never would in the day

Then he gets into trouble just as soon as he gets away

Drinkin' dark whiskey

Tellin' white lies

One leads to another

On a Saturday night

Don't you cross your heart

Unless you hope to die

Drinkin' dark whiskey

And tellin' white lies

Yes, sir

A little white lie don't mean anyone no good

When it's makin' the rounds all over the neighborhood

Next thing you know, you're all misunderstood

Drinkin' dark whiskey

And tellin' white lies

One leads to another

On Saturday night

Don't you cross your heart

Unless you hope to die

Drinkin' dark whiskey

And tellin' white lies

Drinkin' dark whiskey

And tellin' white lies

Tellin' white lies

Just tellin' white lies
