Chorus:
Boozers are losers when benders don't end
Whiskey, I've loved you since I don't know when
It's all kind of haxy and hard to recall-
The honky tonk bars-the climbin' the walls

I heard him sayin' as he left the bar
"It's nobody's fault-its the way that things are.
The rich get the cake and the poor get the blame.
Sometimes I feel like a cat in the rain."

I lived in west Texas when I was a child
Where ladies are lovers and cowboys are wild
I learned to drink before I learned to sing
Sometimes I feel like a bird with no wings

Repeat chorus

Whiskey, you devil, you've been my downfall
When I'm in trouble there's no one to call
Sometimes I feel like a bird with no wings

Repeat chorus

Boozers are losers when benders don't end
Whiskey, I've loved you since I don't know when
It's all kind of hazy and hard to recall
The honky tonk bars-the climbin' the walls
The honky tonk bars-the climbin' the walls
Ooh
