lyrics

ghetto whiskey ghetto wine
how should I divide my time
I can’t see nothin’ worth wakin’ for
my baby’s gone for good this time for sure

and I tell myself it’ll be alright
even though I know it won’t

a drunk and lost a sleepwalking ghost
there’s really no place ever to go
out on the bridge the water it shines like gold
and the trains roll by in slomo
and I throw my bottles out against the boxcars
and curse the stars

the ghetto whiskey the ghetto wine
how should I divide my time
with discount cigs and a bartender friend
to close these curtains with heavy eyelids

ghetto whiskey ghetto wine
how should I divide my time
