Lyrics:
V1
Whiskey, got a hold on me
The bottle and I had our first dance
When it gonna set me free
To young to know it’d last
V2
Some say I lost me more
I just don't care to say
Don’t know who’s keeping score
Since you went away
Chorus
The bottom of the jug
Is like a deep well
I fell into that drug
And that’s where I dwell
I took my first chug
On the road to hell
The road to hell
V3
I thought I’d make it back
Tried more than once or twice
But then got hooked on crack
Obsession’s my new vice
V4
I didn’t plan to stay
For more than just a day
Got lost along the way
My feet have turned to clay
Chorus
The bottom of the jug
Is like a deep well
I fell into that drug
And that’s where I dwell
I took my first chug
On the road to hell
V5
It started with a drink
That opened up the gate
In the matter of a blink
I went and took the bait
Chorus
The bottom of the jug
Is like a deep well I
fell into that drug
And that’s where I dwell
I took my first chug
On the road to hell
Outro
On the road to hell
The road to hell
