(Verse 1) She walks in the bar most men won’t meet her eyes They know there’s something wicked hiding deep inside I didn’t know the danger till she got close to me Sweet smoke on her breath like aged Kentucky heat She came in already tasting like my favorite top shelf pour Like heartbreak in a bottle walking through that door Her words were sharp and sinister not a single one slurred Every sentence cut so clean you barely felt the burn (Pre-Chorus) Band kept playing but the room got still Like everybody there knew she could kill (Chorus) She’s got whiskey teeth Biting holes straight through me Honey on her lips but the devil underneath Pulling me deeper with every slow dance beat Lord I should run but she tastes too sweet Yeah she’s smooth as bourbon Mean as Tennessee heat One kiss from those whiskey teeth (Verse 2) Black boots moving slow across the hardwood floor Every cowboy in that room knew better than before But I kept chasing danger like I had something to prove While she smiled like a loaded gun fixing to make her move She said “Cowboy you look like you’ve got ghosts of your own” Then she leaned in close like she already knew them all Neon shining red against the ice inside her glass By then I knew damn well I wasn’t built to last (Pre-Chorus) Fiddle screaming while she pulled me near Whole room vanished when she whispered in my ear (Chorus) She’s got whiskey teeth Biting holes straight through me Honey on her lips but the devil underneath Pulling me deeper with every slow dance beat Lord I should run but she tastes too sweet Yeah she’s smooth as bourbon Mean as Tennessee heat One kiss from those whiskey teeth (Bridge) Then she laughed and said, “Cowboy I know your kind You wear that grin like everything’s alright” I said, “Girl don’t act like you ain’t the same We’re both just gasoline pretending we ain’t flames” For a second both of us quit playing roles Two lost shadows looking through each other’s souls That’s when I knew why I kept holding on She wasn’t the danger… She felt like home (Breakdown) Bartender laughed said “Boy don’t say I didn’t warn ya…” Too late now… (Final Chorus) She’s got whiskey teeth And they cut just like mine Both of us burning underneath these neon lights Two restless souls dancing way too close to the edge Trying to outrun all the ghosts inside our heads Yeah she’s smooth as bourbon And mean as Tennessee heat And somewhere in her eyes I saw the same damn thing in me Those whiskey teeth… (Outro) Last thing I saw was her laughing through the smoke… While the band played another slow song… And somewhere between the bourbon and neon light Two broken souls finally stopped hiding for the night…
