If tears were Tennessee Whiskey
lyrics by Nathan A. Baker, music by Jeff Knight, BMI 2007 Alt. Country Male Demo
I am just a songwriter/musician/singer/producer who writes a few songs every now and then. I have since retired from road work and mostly do studio recordings and I have my own home demo studio which you hear music created in it from time to time. I will post some demos of my own and maybe some demos of co-writes or co-producing. It's just what I feel like posting at the time. Thanks for stopping by! ;-)

Verse 1
I gave up hard living, cards and cigarettes
until you started cheating Honey, I had no regrets.
If one-sided love is all we’ve got Well, girl it just won’t do
and if tears were Tennessee whiskey Honey, I’d be drunk on you.
Chorus
If tears were Tennessee Whiskey, I’d be drunk on you.
There would be enough left overs to invite a friend or two.
We could sip a round, and put you down
for all the pain you put me through
If tears were Tennessee whiskey
Honey, I’d be drunk on you.
Verse 2
I gave you my best years, The most succulent from the vine
and you gave me your cheating heart, a tainted red valentine
you might not miss me darling, When love’s bill comes due
but my tears turn to Tennessee Whiskey honey and I’ll still be
drunk on you
Chorus
If tears were Tennessee Whiskey Honey, I’d be drunk on you.
there would be enough left overs to invite a friend or two.
We could sip a round, and put you down
for all the pain you put me through
If tears were Tennessee whiskey
Honey, I’d be drunk on you.

If I had a dime for every drop roll down my cheek
I'd be the richest man in all o'Tennessee

Honey, I’d be drunk on you.
