If Whiskey Were Knives (Stripped Back) Lyrics

Well, her cannon's been loose for a while

She took too many drugs yeah they crossed all her wires

Now she breathes like a glass of whiskey

If whiskey were a fire

Yeah, she's got a lot on her mind

She'll say what she wants

She don't ever think twice

Like a smooth glass of whiskey

If whiskey were knives

She's rough round the edges

And oh she burns like the sun

Well, the devil dulled down her mind

But she damn sure still got a sharp tongue

Her words cut so deep

They might as well draw blood

She's a smooth glass of whiskey

If whiskey were a loaded gun

Stapleton used to be right

Cuz she used to be sweet as strawberry wine

Now she's smooth as that Tennessee whiskey

If whiskey were knives

There's no use in tryin to fight

She'll blow the roof off if you step out of line

Like a strong glass whiskey

If whiskey were a land mine

She's rough round the edges

And oh she burns like the sun

Yeah, the devil dulled down her mind

But she damn sure still got a sharp tongue

Her words cut so deep

They might as well draw blood

She's a strong glass of whiskey

If whiskey were a loaded gun

She's a strong glass of whiskey

If whiskey were a loaded gun

Yeah, she's a smooth glass of whiskey

If whiskey were a loaded gun
