about

We were fortunate enough to learn this song directly from the author, Jake Wiley. He was even generous enough to join us on the second verse!

lyrics

Lyrics:

Well I think you're sick and tired of me
'Cause the only thing you're holding tonight is that damn Jim Beam
And he's been closer to you than I
But he can't hold you tonight

Something's wrong, I can see
In those baby blue eyes
Your lips don't want me
So why am I holding you tonight

I can smell the smell as you walk in the room
You weren't with your friends, now honey, and your lies ain't true
'Cause it ain't hard to spot a snake in the sand
Leaving trails where you go
Thought I wouldn't understand

Something's wrong, I can see
In those baby blue eyes
Your lips don't want me
So why am I holding you tonight

Something's wrong, I can see
In those baby blue eyes
Your lips don't want me
So why am I holding you tonight

Yeah, yeah tell me why am I holding you tonight
