This is the story of a traveller Some say they've seen him pass by Some say he hides in the dark of the night As he sings his song of lies Bye bye, whiskey and wine When the dust has finally settled you will find that I'm too tired Did you know that I was leaving for good this time? This is a story of a sailor Who's become weary of the seas But no harbor will make him whole And no tavern will keep him dry Bye bye, whiskey and wine When the dust has finally settled you will find that I'm too tired Did you know that I was leaving for good Bye bye, whiskey and wine When the dust has finally settled you will find that I'm too tired Did you know that I was leaving for good this time? This is the story of the daylight And all the blows she throws at me And in the end my faith is my friend And my path is mine to walk Bye bye, whiskey and wine When the dust has finally settled you will find that I'm too tired Did you know that I was leaving for good Bye bye, whiskey and wine When the dust has finally settled you will find that I'm too tired Did you know that I was leaving for good this time?
