Last night I got a call
News that made no sense at all
Couldn't believe it, the more I tried
I cursed your name and then I cried
Could've turned to anyone
It's too late now that you're gone
I found that bottle that you gave me
That you brought back from Tennessee
And you said "Save it for a rainy day"
But I think right now would be okay
To open it up and pour us one
Sit outside in the sun
And raise a toast to you, my friend
All you were and could have been
Why let these blue skies get in the way?
Sure feels like a rainy day
We should make good whiskey last
It's always warm and gone too fast
It's kind of like the life you lived
We never got enough of it
I can only hope you knew
That everyone looked up to you
So, what the hell, let's have a drink
Weather's perfect, don't you think?
And you said "Save it for a rainy day"
But I think right now would be okay
To open it up and pour us one
And sit outside in the sun
And raise a toast to you, my friend
All you were and could have been
Why let these blue skies get in the way?
You said "Save it for a rainy day"
But I think right now would be okay
To open it up and pour us one
Just sit outside in the sun
And raise a toast to you my friend
All you were and could have been
Why let these blue skies get in the way?
Sure feels like a rainy day
It's a rainy day
