I need a little Jack in my Coke I need to get her off my brain I wanna make my head float Yeah tonight I'm a maker's Mark Twain I might end up at her front door I might spend the night in jail I might end up on the bathroom floor No tellin' where I go when the ship set sail Down the Whiskeysippi River Ain't no turning back No mercy on my liver I don't know where I'll crash All I know is I'm going South fast Tomorrow's gonna be a little hazy 'Cause tonight I'm goin' wherever this Whiskeysippi River takes me I gotta chase theses Blues from the Delta Only one thing gonna work Ain't no fruity umbrella drink Strong enough to drown this hurt When I get that brown liquor fix Kickin' in my blood stream
Ain't no barefoot fishin' line raft It's a two ton heartache pickin' up steam Down the Whiskeysippi River Ain't no turning back No mercy on my liver I don't know where I'll crash All I know is I'm going South fast Yeah tomorrow's gonna be a little hazy 'Cause tonight I'm goin' wherever this Whiskeysippi River takes me I put my troubles all behind me I'm gonna take a little ride on the mighty, mighty, mighty, mighty Whiskeysippi River Ain't no turning back No mercy on my liver, no I don't know where I'll crash All I know is I'm going South fast Yeah tomorrow's gonna be a little hazy 'Cause tonight I'm goin' wherever this Whiskeysippi River takes me Take me down to the river
