    he's told me a million times he's sorry
    i always take him back though soon i know
    he'll spend the night with you and leave me cryin'
    you don't love him but you won't let him go
    whiskey, if you were a woman
    i'd fight and i'd win Lord know i would
    whiskey, if you were a woman
    i'd drive you from his tangled mind for good
    no matter what you'd do i'd do it better
    you'd never be the woman i could be
    but you don't have a heart or any feelings
    so i can't even ask for sympathy

    This is a great song by a fantastic band. Paulette sang the song of my dear grandma's life. I loved grandpa too, but whiskey always won. With 8 kids during the depression, grandma stayed with her man and leaned on her Lord to get her through. Whiskey had a hold on gramps for most of his life, but somehow they both lived into their 90s and stayed married for 78 years!!!!

Was able to talk to Paulette and the band after the show. Not only is she extremely talented but she is one of the sweetest and most beautiful women on the planet. Even though we were there to see the Grand Ole Opry, her concert was THE highlight of our trip.

Oh and all the pedal steel, amazing. Highway 101, Confederate railroad, Kentucky headhunters, Diamond Rio, Asleep at the wheel, etc etc. Music sucks now here in Nashville.

    I need a lyric video lol! Back when country was good. I wish all these great artist would flood NASHVILLE and just sing at intersections, bars, the waterfront and wherever to remind Nashville where it’s roots are.

    Greatest HWY101 song IMO. Amazing country band. Together with DRB these two bands are the best since the Buckaroos. And that is really saying something. Too much garbage called country these days on country radio. mosrite60
