Whiskey and Pine
melodic country acousticLyrics
[Verse]
In a small-town bar 'neath the Tennessee sky,
The whiskey's flowin’ and the time slips by,
Old men reminiscin' 'bout the good old days,
While young hearts are dreamin' of a far-off place.
[Verse 2]
Down by the river where the willow trees sway,
Young lovers carve their names in the bark each day,
Hoping their initials withstand the time,
Like the spirits in the bottle, and the smell of pine.
[Chorus]
Oh, we’re all just stories written in the dust,
In this faded town, where love is a must,
With whiskey in our veins and dreams in our minds,
We’ll keep on dancing in the pines, oh, the pines.
[Verse 3]
Mama’s in the kitchen with the radio on,
Daddy’s out back, tryin' to mow the lawn,
Kids playin' barefoot in the red clay dirt,
Livin' for the moments that don’t seem to hurt.
[Verse 4]
Sunday morning comes, church bells ring,
Choir boys and angels start to sing,
We pray for rain and we pray for grace,
Thank the Lord for giving us this place.
[Chorus]
Oh, we’re all just stories written in the dust,
In this faded town, where love is a must,
With whiskey in our veins and dreams in our minds,
We’ll keep on dancing in the pines, oh, the pines.
