I hate to explain it to my friends
How could I let such a good thing end
“If y’all can’t make it no one can”
Some can’t even understand…
They may think I was wrong
But I’ll tell you what I blame it on

It’s hard to trust a man
Who can’t trust himself with Whiskey
If you walk that line - you’re gonna find
It gets a little risky
He’ll beg for one more shot,
Try to tie your life in knots
And after that, your chances are iffy
It’s hard to trust a man
Who can’t trust himself
With Whiskey

Just one too many lies I can’t forgive
And that’s just not the way I choose to live
So I’ll be moving on
Maybe he’ll miss me when I’m gone
They might say I need more faith
But I couldn’t take another day

It’s hard to trust a man
Who can’t trust himself with Whiskey
If you walk that line - you’re gonna find
It gets a little risky
He’ll beg for one more shot,
Try to tie your life in knots
And after that, your chances are iffy
It’s hard to trust a man
Who can’t trust himself
With Whiskey

The road can sure get rough
When he hits the harder stuff

It’s hard to trust a man
Who can’t trust himself with Whiskey
If you walk that line - you’re gonna find
It gets a little risky
He’ll beg for one more shot,
Try to tie your life in knots
And after that, your chances are iffy
It’s hard to trust a man
Who can’t trust himself
With Whiskey
