Whiskey Wells Run Dry Lyrics

n a dusty town where the sun don't lie

We built our homes on hopes and rye

Every night we'd raise a glass

Now those golden days have passed

Used to hear that barrel's sweet lullaby

Now the silence breaks the night sky

Creaky floorboards and empty shelves

The ghosts of whiskey where late they dwelled

When the whiskey wells run dry

Tears fall just like rain from the sky

Heartaches and memories they multiply

When the whiskey wells run dry

Grandpa's flask now a relic of pride

Tales of glory he often tried to hide

Legends faded casks now hollowed

Dreams we chased in shadows followed

When the whiskey wells run dry

Tears fall just like rain from the sky

Heartaches and memories they multiply

When the whiskey wells run dry

Bar stools empty but the stories they hold

Laughter echoes in these walls so cold

A thirst for days when joy was nigh

But the whiskey wells run dry
