  • Always there,
    When my world starts closing in,
    Something to hold,
    No matter how long it's been.

    Gets me high,
    Then knocks me to the ground.
    Soothes my mind,
    And then begins to break me down.

    Whiskey and you,
    Ain't nothing I can do,
    But come crawling back to,
    Whiskey and you.

    I never asked you to love me,
    I never begged you to stay.
    But I never want you to leave me,
    I wouldn't have it any other way.

    Whiskey and you,
    Ain't nothing I can do,
    But come crawling back to,
    Whiskey and you.

    As darkness finds the candle,
    And the flame stops flickering,
    Girl I know and I hope,
    It won't be too long,
    'Till we light it up again.

    Whiskey and you,
    Ain't nothing I can do,
    But come crawling back to,
    Whiskey and you.

    Whiskey and you,
    There ain't nothing, there ain't nothing I can do,
    But I keep crawling, I keep coming back to.
    Whiskey and you. Writer/s: DARIUS C. RUCKER, FRANK MANDEVILLE V. ROGERS
