It's a Blue Ribbon morning, after a black label night
Well, I got kinda outta hand, 'cause I was wound up a little too tight
But Jesus still loves me even when I do the devils ways
I'm just a honky tonk angel with a little bit of hell to pay
I'd rather be somebody's shot of whiskey
Somebody's rough around the edge
At least I can sleep well tonight
'Cause I stand behind the words I said
You cant make everybody happy and that's alright by me
As long as my baby loves me all the way from A to Z
I'd rather be somebody's shot of whiskey than everybody's cup of tea
All my life I've been told I'm cut from a different cloth
And if I tried to hide it, it'd all come out in the wash
If I'm a little left of center, well I really don't give a damn
'Cause I got all the friends I need, that take me just the way am
I'd rather be somebody's shot of Whiskey
Somebody's blue flame in the fire
Some are gonna see the rose, some are gonna see the briar
You can't make everybody happy and that's alright by me
As long as my baby loves me all the way from A to Z
I'd rather be somebody's shot of whiskey then everybody's cup of tea
You cant make everybody happy and that's alright by me
As long as my baby loves me all the way from A to Z
I'd rather be somebody's shot of whiskey than everybody's cup of tea
Yeah, I'd rather be somebody's shot of whiskey than everybody's cup of tea
