Love on the rocks that's all he said As he sat there beside me shaking his head I said Mister you look like you're taking it rough The next round's on me he said I don't touch the stuff Cause these hundred proof mem'ries are stronger than wine It don't take but one taste to send you out of your mind No I don't want the whiskey but I could sure use a ride Cause with hundred proof mem'ries Lord you don't think and drive [ guitar - steel ] He said I quit drinkin' the day that she left I come here out of habit in spite of myself But there ain't no liquor that money can buy That's stronger than what's bottled up inside Cause these hundred proof mem'ries... No I don't want the whiskey...
