intro   
                                               
I had every intention of getting hammered here tonight
                              
I gave my truck keys to the barkeep
                                
Said Dave don't you dare let me drive
                            
But in the middle of this bottle
                                 
I drank my train of thought off track
                     
So I've gotta stop drinkin' 
             
Or start rethinkin'
                           
my reason for throwin' em back
chorus
                         
Cause it's just wasted whiskey
                            
Tryin' to drink you offa my mind
                                       
There ain't enough bourbon behind this bar
                           
And I ain't got that kinda time
                           
So I'm gonna stand while I can
              
And raise my glass
                           
Toast every time ya kissed me
                              
Cause drinkin' to forget about you 
Is wasted whiskey
Yeah 

So here's to new beginnings and to the memories
And cheers to your mommy and daddy
Cause they were right about you and me
And here's to Milsap on the jukebox
And to your new friends you found
And here's to our joint account
Mastercard
Cause I'm buyin' the whole house around

Cause it's just wasted whiskey
Tryin' to drink you offa my mind
There ain't enough bourbon behind this bar
And I ain't got that kinda time
So I'm gonna stand while I can
And raise my glass
Toast every time ya kissed me
Cause drinkin' to forget about you 
Is wasted whiskey
Yeah 

Yeah I'll take another one

Cause it's just wasted whiskey
Tryin' to drink you offa my mind
There ain't enough bourbon behind this bar
And I ain't got that kinda time
So I'm gonna stand while I can
And raise my glass
Toast every time ya kissed me
Cause drinkin' to forget about you 
Is wasted whiskey
Yeah
