Time to Drink Whiskey Lyrics by Willie Watson

Tonight I’ll Go Down Swingin’: A Tribute To Don Heffington

2024

[Verse 1]
I left my car in Denver
The manifold's blown
I lost the keys to the house
That my wife says she owns
She took all the Carl Perkins
Even the Stones
And it seems I've got nothing but time
[Verse 2]
The skies have turned cloudy
The clouds are all gray
And I'm drunk in a park
Where my kids used to play
Had a girl who once loved me
And she's gone away
Now it seems I've got nothing but time
[Verse 3]
I've got time to remember
Time to regret
Timе to drink whiskey
And smoke cigarettеs
Seems to go on forever
It's not over yet
Oh these days there's nothing but time
[Verse 4]
There's a place in St Louis
Where the band used to go
We'd laugh and we'd sing songs
That we didn't know
And the fair and tender maidens
Lined up in a row
St Louis seems just like a dream
[Verse 5]
I can hardly remember
The people I met
Through the cheap southern whiskey
And stale cigarettes
Seems to go on forever
It's not over yet
Don't know just what I thought I would find
Oh but these days there's nothing but time
[Outro]
Seems to go on forever
It's not over yet
Oh these days there's nothing but time
