Pretend Friend - Whiskey Lyrics

I ran from the law
I'll pack my things and leave tomorrow
I got a couple ornery horses
They're gonna get me to Chicago
Lord there's whiskey in my bottle
I've been rolling in the mud
And I answer to nobody but God

Well I met a bad girl
She kept me hanging on tomorrow
Lord I died in her arms every night
Now all I know is sorrow
I said baby unload your gun
I see my welcome has expired
The good die young and the fast live to retire

Live or die I'm to blame
Live or die I'm worth the same
Oh hey hey baby call my name
I know you don't let yourself feel no pain

Lord I keep my hands out of bad men's pockets
And I keep my heart from leading me astray
See I don't wanna swing from a tree
I don't wanna burn up in a fire
I just want my lungs full of desire

Live or die I'm to blame
Live or die I'm worth the same
Oh hey hey baby call my name
I know you don't let yourself feel no pain

Well I ran from the law
I'll pack my things and leave tomorrow
I still got these same old horses
They got me to Chicago
There's still whiskey in my bottle
I'm still rolling in the mud
And I answer to nobody but God

Live or die I'm to blame
Live or die I'm worth the same
Oh hey hey baby call my name
I know you don't let yourself feel no pain
