Poison Whiskey Lyrics

I been running, I been hiding

On the wrong end of the law

Cheating and left bleeding on the floor

I been set up, I been locked up

Three long years doing time

My whole life is just a carnival of crime

It's a game of survival, you gotta play by the rules

That's life in the jungle and it's cruel

Devil's supper for the devil's breed

My poison whiskey is all I need

You can't see teardrops in the falling rain

I need poison whiskey to ease my pain

I been playing with the big boys

Dealing on the street

Hustling every low life that I meet

The last fool who tried to cross me

The last thing he ever saw

Was a fleeting glimpse of my smoking .44

If you don't learn to swim here, boy, you're gonna drown

No matter what the only way is down

Devil's supper for the devil's breed

My poison whiskey is all I need

You can't see teardrops in the falling rain

I need poison whiskey to ease my pain

If you see me in the backstreets, you'd better step aside

'Cause there's no one to save you here tonight

It's just kill or be killed, it's who's the quicker on the draw

I'm the ruler, I'm the unwritten law

Devil's supper for the devil's breed

My poison whiskey is all I need

You can't see teardrops in the falling rain

I need poison whiskey to ease my pain

Devil's supper for the devil's breed

My poison whiskey is all I need

You can't see teardrops in the falling rain

I need poison whiskey to ease my pain
