We can fight the fight all damn night But in the morning light, the lies reveal the truth Yeah, the sober truth We wake up to reality And play the blame game ruthlessly Like it would've turned out different If we would've stopped at one or two
But don't blame it on whiskey No, this ain't about a drink Don't let alcohol take the fall For all these thoughts I think Let's get down to the bottom And not just the bottom of the glass This heartbreak train's pickin' up steam And we're standin' on the track Yeah, I can blame it on you Or you can blame it on me But don't blame it on whiskey
So here we are, and there it is This line we're leaning up against Wonderin' which way we're gonna fall And how we're gonna answer that last call
But don't blame it on whiskey No, this ain't about a drink Don't let alcohol take the fall For all these thoughts I think Let's get down to the bottom And not just the bottom of the glass This heartbreak train's pickin' up steam And we're standin' on the track Yeah, I can blame it on you Or you can blame it on me But don't blame it on
Whiskey might be strong But it ain't got nothin' on What's goin' on here
Let's get down to the bottom And not just the bottom of the glass This heartbreak train is pickin' up steam And we're standin' on the track Yeah, I can blame it on me (I can blame it on me) Or you can blame it on me (Or you can blame it on me) But don't blame it on whiskey, ooh Yeah, I can blame it on me You can blame it on me But don't blame it on whiskey
