Whiskey Willow

[Verse 1] Down by the river bend She ties her hair with twine Tan line on her shoulder And trouble in her smile Boots full of red dirt Ride marks on her jeans If you ask her where she’s going She’ll say, “Hold on, and see” [Pre-Chorus] She don’t wait on nobody She don’t break for the rain When that old world tries to hold her She slips loose again [Chorus] Whiskey Willow Run wild, run slow Whiskey Willow Where the strong winds blow She’s a spark in the sage And a rodeo glow Whiskey Willow Whiskey Willow [Verse 2] She can rope a bad day With one quick grin Make a busted heart feel Like it might love again There’s dust on the porch rail And stars on her sleeve She leaves a little heartbreak Wherever she leaves [Pre-Chorus] She don’t wait on nobody She don’t break for the rain When that old world tries to hold her She slips loose again [Chorus] Whiskey Willow Run wild, run slow Whiskey Willow Where the strong winds blow She’s a spark in the sage And a rodeo glow Whiskey Willow Whiskey Willow [Bridge] If you see her at midnight Don’t ask her to stay She’ll tip her hat and vanish Like a prayer in the hay But if your world gets heavy And your luck runs thin She’ll come back like thunder And pull you back in [Chorus] Whiskey Willow Run wild, run slow Whiskey Willow Where the strong winds blow She’s a spark in the sage And a rodeo glow Whiskey Willow Whiskey Willow
