"Whiskey Wanted" lyrics

I'm sorry, girl, for calling you last night, I shouldn't have
It was way too late, and you need your space, so baby, that's my bad
Yeah, I know what it looks like, but it wasn't like that at all
Well, anyway, I'll take the blame, but I swear it wasn't all my fault

I wanted a Maker's on the rocks
I wanted to make that heartbreak stop
I wanted to wash away what all you put me through
I wanted to win that uphill battle
I wanted to get back in the saddle
And ride off into the sunset with somebody new
Last night, I wanted whiskey
But whiskey wanted you

Yeah, I've been out a dozen times since you made it crystal clear
And it's never been a problem probably 'cause I was drinking beer
I shoulda stuck to what I know and what they had on tap
Girl, I wanted to let you go, but the whiskey wanted you back

I wanted a Maker's on the rocks
I wanted to make that heartbreak stop
I wanted to wash away what all you put me through
I wanted to win that uphill battle
I wanted to get back in the saddle
And ride off into the sunset with somebody new
Last night, I wanted whiskey
But whiskey wanted you

To pick up, say, "Come on over"
Talk all night with your head on my shoulder
Make the morning last all afternoon
Like we used to do
Whiskey wanted you, oh

I wanted a Maker's on the rocks
I wanted to make that heartbreak stop
I wanted to wash away what all you put me through
I wanted to win that uphill battle
I wanted to get back in the saddle
And ride off into the sunset with somebody new
Last night, I wanted whiskey
Last night, I wanted whiskey
But whiskey wanted you
Yeah, whiskey wanted you
