Lyrics: Whiskey Bent

[Cody Johnson:]

It put a hole in my wallet, put a hole in my wall

It put a whole lotta lonely in this 2 AM phone call

It put your Honda on the highway and my Chevy in a ditch

Just had to call you up 'cause I ain't touched that stuff ever since

It made me say some things I shouldn't

Made me break some things I wouldn't

Like the heart that you kept puttin' in my hand

Got me pickin' up the pieces

Gettin' back in touch with Jesus

For some grace in case one of y'all comes back again

I'm just tryin' to straighten up what whiskey bent

[Jelly Roll:]

Now I'm still payin' for it, but it ain't on a tab

It's all the dreamin' of instead of wakin' up to the best I ever had

And I've been spendin' every second waitin' for that second chance

That I might not even have

'Cause it made me say some things I shouldn't

Made me break some things I wouldn't

Like the heart that you kept puttin' in my hands

Got me pickin' up the pieces

Fallin' back in love with Jesus

And prayin' one of y'all comes back again

I'm just tryin' to straighten up what whiskey bent

[Cody Johnson:]

It made me say some things I shouldn't

Made me break some things I wouldn't

Like the heart that you kept puttin' in my hand

It's got me pickin' up the pieces

Gettin' back in touch with Jesus

For some grace in case one of y'all comes back again

But until then

I'll be tryin' to straighten up what whiskey bent

[Jelly Roll:]

What whiskey bent
