It’s my favorite whisky and I can’t take a sip
I see you and feel it burning on my lip
I wish the ghost of you would go away

whisky is my poison, I can’t drown your memory
whisky is my poison, why don’t you just let me be
whisky is my poison, your ghost keeps bring up the past
whisky is my poison, whisky is my poison

Everyone has that one night they regret
Wake up next to dead swearing I’ll never do that again
But was it the whisky or the company

I could have glass of straight satan on the rocks
Or maybe one too many kamikaze shots
But there’s one thing I can’t drink because of you

whisky is my poison, I can’t drown your memory
whisky is my poison, why don’t you just let me be
whisky is my poison, your ghost keeps bring up the past
whisky is my poison, whisky is my poison

so, I guess tonight it’s time to give in
You know that I know that this is bad for me
But it feels good against my lips

whisky is my poison, I can’t drown your memory
whisky is my poison, why don’t you just let me be
whisky is my poison, your ghost keeps bring up the past
whisky is my poison, whisky is my poison

It’s my favorite whisky and I can’t take a sip
I see you and feel it burning on my lip
I wish the ghost of you would go away
Why should whisky take all the blame?
