Murder By Death - Rum To Whiskey Lyrics

Murder By Death Lyrics

"Rum To Whiskey"
(originally by Murder City Devils)

She was the best thing
Best thing that he ever had
She was the best thing

He switched from rum
To whiskey

She was the only decent thing
In a good for nothing town
She was the prettiest girl
In an ugly town
He must feel sorry I know
He hates sin
He switched from rum to whiskey

(Bang! Bang!) Bang! Bang! He put her down
(Bang! Bang!) Bang! Bang! He put her
Down
Down

She was the best thing
Best thing that he ever had

Do you remember the beer
On her breath?
Do you remember your hands
On the hem of her dress?
Do you remember crying
With the skirt she wore tucked under your hand?
He switched from rum to whiskey

(Bang! Bang!) Bang! Bang! He put her down
(Bang! Bang!) Bang! Bang! He put her down
(Bang! Bang!) He switched from rum to whiskey
(Bang! Bang!) He switched from rum
To whiskey

Did it keep you from finding someone new?
Bang! Bang! Took her down, too

She was the best thing
In this god-forsaken town
I'm sure that he longs
To be free
Of sin
He will pray in secret
To the ones he loved so well
He switched from rum to whiskey

(Bang! Bang!) Bang! Bang! He put her down
(Bang! Bang!) Bang! Bang! He put her down
(Bang! Bang!) He switched from rum to whiskey
(Bang! Bang!) He switched from rum
To whiskey
