Bourbon Trail |
LyricsBourbon TrailMark Patterson © 2023 I heard they've got something called a bourbon trail I blazed a few but mine tend to end up in jail Once again I'm just ahead of my time She was celebrating a brand new life After just getting over being somebody's wife Sayin' don't leave me here when you go honey that'd be a crime I said believe me when I tell you baby you don't want to cross that line 'Cause I don't know what I'm looking for or tryin' to forget I keep my eyes open wide for a vision but I ain't seen it yet Maybe this time I'll finally find the honky tonk holy grail Waiting for me at the end of that bourbon trail Let's ride I don't know what I'm looking for or tryin' to forget I keep my eyes open wide for a vision but I ain't seen it yet Maybe this time I'll finally find the honky tonk holy grail Waiting for me at the end of that bourbon trail Well I guess I'm blessed to have the guys by my side They sure seem glad to be along for the ride Maybe just maybe 'cause it's all on my dime Feelin' lucky in Kentucky and I'm Bardstown bound Got my eyes on the prize and my nose to the ground Why not take a run at it one more time A double shot of trouble is something I can hardly decline I don't know what I'm looking for or tryin' to forget I keep my eyes open wide for a vision but I ain't seen it yet Maybe this time I'll finally find the honky tonk holy grail Waiting for me at the end of that bourbon trail Maybe this time I'll finally find the honky took holy grail Waiting for me at the end of that bourbon trail Ah waiting for me at the end of that bourbon trail Yeah waiting for me at the end of that bourbon trail |
