Bourbon Blues Serenade

But I'll shake it off like the delta dust With a strong sip, in the bourbon I trust [Pre-Chorus] That amber burn, a soothing hand Takes me away to no man's land When the blues hit hard, I make my stand With the comfort of the glass in my hand Oh I've got that bourbon in my hand Oh I've got that bourbon in my hand 'Cause my worries, they're pourin' out like sand Workin' Monday feels just like a beast If I'm workin' Monday like I feel deceased I'll take that drink and let my soul release Glass half full in this smoky bar light Another sip and I'll be settlin' in right [Bridge] Now the band's playin' soul-shaking tunes And I'm drowning out life with these mellow blues So keep it flowing, bartender, don't you end my flight In the bottom of the bottle, my troubles take flight Now it's Tuesday eve, with a weary brow But there's magic in the bourbon, it's my holy cow [Chorus] I'm talkin’ smooth, with that golden glow Drownin' sorrows that only the whiskey knows Sorrow's companion, in a glass that's tight On a lonesome weeknight, pourin’ my plight Wednesday crawls, and the hours they drag But I find peace in that old brown bag [Pre-Chorus] The bottle whispers, it's calling my name With every gulp, I'm shedding the shame Forget the struggle, ignore the demand With the weight of the world, I'll take my stand Thursday's toll, the clock ticks slow My bottle friend, ain't got far to go Lights they dim as my spirit's high In the liquid truth, there are no lies [Chorus] I got the delta rhythm in my soul tonight Bourbon blues under the faded neon light
