Keith Whitley - Tennessee Courage lyrics

When they're at the bar, I'll be there on the stool And forget all my cares in a hurry And it's my belief that I'll find relief In a bottle of Tennessee courage. Her memory keeps waitin' in the light every night Alone with the last of my always But I'll never crawl, I can hold love from wall With the help of some Tennessee courage. Now my good friend Jack Daniels stands tall on the shelf And he'll go to war with my troubles And he'll never desert this old friend when I'm hurt And needin' some Tennessee courage. [Instrumental] It's straight ninety proof can all turn to truth The hair on your chest in a hurry I know I'll survive praise help from the wife With the help of some Tennessee courage. Now my good friend Jack Daniels stands tall on the shelf And he'll go to war with my troubles And he'll never desert this old friend when I'm hurt And needin' some Tennessee courage. No he'll never desert this old friend when I'm hurt And needin' some Tennessee courage. So pour me some Tennessee courage...
