Ain't much to do around here Ever since you disappeared Oh, when the weather gets colder Leaves turn to rust, reminds me of us Got me wishin' I could still hold ya' If I wasn't holdin' this whiskey Maybe you'd be here with me And I wouldn't be Sitting here mixin' up memories And feeling just as empty As this bottles 'bout to be yeah It's hard to hold a lover when you're holdin' down a bar Keeping it together shouldn't be so hard If I wasn't holding this whiskey You never would have packed your bags And headed west down the highway Hometown bound to your sister's house The one that never really liked me If I wasn't holdin' this whiskey whoa oh oh If I wasn't holdin' this whiskey woah oh oh It's so hard to hold a lover when you're holdin' down a bar Keeping it together shouldn't be so hard If I wasn't holding this whiskey Maybe you'd be here with me And I wouldn't be Sitting here mixin' up a memory And feeling just as empty As this bottles bout to be yeah It's hard to hold a lover when you're holdin' down a bar Keeping it together shouldn't be so hard When it ain't you it's me that's bein' hard to hold I know it would be a different story If I wasn't holding this whiskey If I wasn't holdin' this whiskey If I wasn't holdin' this whiskey Oh, maybe I'd feel something but maybe I, maybe I wouldn't have a song to sing
