Another day aged
In a dark, dark place
The wrinkles on my shirt
Match the ones on my face
Mirror shows a man
On an old familiar road
Every seeds gone bad
On every row I've sewn
Cause it's not easy
To be me today
Crossroads ahead
I can't choose a way
Soles are worn out
On both of my shoes
Empty lanes in all directions
Got "The Single Malt Blues"
15 years older
With every shot glass
On the gauge of life
Guess I'm outa gas
Scotch so sharp
It makes me hurt
Hooked on lies
In a barbed wire shirt
REPEAT CHORUS----
Bridge:
The life I chose
With a drink in my hand
Well, it ripped the soul
Out of this man
Just a half haggard shell
On the lost road to HELL
SILENCE---------
Tired and worn out
Like the soles on my shoes
The journey of a man
With the "Single Malt Blues"
Drinkin' it all
Cause I got nothin, to lose
Down at the bottom
With the "Single Malt Blues"
