  • There ain't enough
    Bourbon in Kentucky
    For me to forget you
    No there ain't enough
    Matches I can strike
    To set afire the memory of you

    Up goes down
    Right's gone left me behind
    Wheels spin 'round
    Reverse stuck in my mind

    There ain't enough
    Bourbon in Kentucky
    For me to forget you
    No there ain't enough
    Bottles I could break
    To make 'em feel as broken as I do

    Stack up every barrel
    Since the day it was made
    Satisfaction guaranteed to kill the pain
    But there ain't enough
    Kisses from a stranger
    On a long wild night to ever make it alright
    If it ain't you

    In my arms, in my bed
    Yeah to hell with all the rest
    Once you've had the best, nothing else will do
    What's the use

    There ain't enough
    Bourbon in Kentucky
    For me to forget you
    No there ain't enough
    Bottles I could drink
    To make 'em feel as empty as I do

    With my mouth wide open
    In a whiskey rain
    I could stand there 24 hours a day

    But there ain't enough
    Bourbon in Kentucky
    For me to forget you
    No there ain't enough
    Bottles I could drink
    To make 'em feel as empty as I do
    No there ain't enough
    Bourbon in Kentucky
    For me to forget you
    So forget you Writer/s: Gordon Francis Sampson, Harold Ryan Tyndell, Hillary Lee Lindsey
