-
She put him out, like the burning end of a midnight cigarette
-
She broke his heart
-
He spend his whole life trying to forget
-
We watch him drink his pain away
-
Little at a time
-
But he never could get drunk enough
-
To get her of his mind until the night
-
He put that bottle to his head and pulled the trigger
-
And finally drank away her memory
-
Life is short but this time it was bigger
-
And the strength he had to get up off his knees
-
We found him with his face down in the pillow
-
With a note that said I'll love her till I die
-
And when we buried him beneath the willow
-
The Angels sang a whiskey lullaby
-
la la la la la la la

-
The rumors flew
-
But nobody knew how much she blamed herself
-
For years and years
-
She tried to hide the whiskey on her breathe
-
She finally drank her pain away little at a time
-
But she never could get drunk enough to get him of her mind
-
Until the night
-
She put that bottle to her head and pulled the trigger
-
And finally drank away his memory
-
Life is short but this time it was bigger
-
Than the strength she had to get up off her knees
-
We found her with her face down in the pillow
-
Clinging to his picture for dear life
-
We laid her next to him beneath the willow
-
While the Angels sang a whiskey lullaby
