Ringing In the Year Lyrics by Turnpike Troubadours

Turnpike Troubadours

2015

[Verse 1]
I thought it better not to talk about the letter that you sent
It was no one else's business, it was barely even mine
And the situation went the way the situation went
We shook that shit off of our shoes a hundred thousand times
[Chorus]
Well won't you miss your whiskey in the wintertime, my dear
The way that I've been missin' you this fall?
And cheap champagne don't dull the pain of ringin' in the year
Wond'rin' if you think of me at all
[Verse 2]
Well the fool I loved in Kansas was the fool I loved the best
You were fool enough to fall in love with me
We were two tornadoes touching down out in the old Midwest
And we did our best at dodging the debris
[Chorus]
Well won't you miss your whiskey in the wintertime, my dear
The way that I've been missin' you this fall?
And cheap champagne don't dull the pain of ringin' in the year
Wond'rin' if you think of me at all
[Verse 3]
With a little more resolve I might be somewhere else with you
But I make no resolution of the kind
So I guess it's just God bless, and you did all that you could do
Let all acquaintance be forgot and never brought to mind
Two roman candles cut across a January sky
[Chorus]
Well won't you miss your whiskey in the wintertime, my dear
The way that I've been missin' you this fall?
And cheap champagne don't dull the pain of ringing' in the year
Wond'rin' if you think of me at all
[Outro]
Well I still wonder about you sometimes, y'know?
