Whiskey River
Willie Nelson
Whiskey River, take my mind
Don't let a memory talk to me
Whiskey River, don't run dry
You're all I got, take care of me
I'm drowning in a Whiskey River
Bathing my memory's mind in the wetness of its soul
Feeling the amber current flowing from my mind
To warm an empty heart you left so cold
(Instrumental interlude)
Repeat both verses

We will leave you your small joys and smaller troubles."

never wrestle with a pig.
you both get dirty;
the pig likes it.
