VERSE 1:
Nobody knows what the next person's feeling,
Nobody knows what's in their heads.
Struggling with confusion in broad daylight,
Reflecting on life,
What I haven't done yet.
CHORUS:
When I'm feeling down and out,
Just want to scream and shout,
When I don't know just which way to turn.
That's when I stop to think baby,
That's when I take a drink, baby,
That's what the whisky's for.
VERSE 2:
Nothing's better than someone to hold you,
Nothing's worse than being alone.
Like a fire burning up with desire,
Like the flames,
My dreams end up as smoke.
CHORUS:
When I'm feeling down and out,
Just want to scream and shout,
When I don't know just which way to turn.
That's when I stop to think baby,
That's when I take a drink, baby,
That's what the whisky's for.
BRIDGE:
Where are you when I need you?
Feels like all my hopes have gone,
Think I'll drown my sorrows,
Think I'll go get stoned.
CHORUS 2:
When I'm feeling down and out,
Just want to scream and shout,
When I don't know just which way to turn.
That's when I stop to think baby,
That's when I take a drink, baby,
That's what the whisky's for.
That's when I stop to think baby,
That's when I take a drink, baby,
That's what the whisky's for,
That's what the whisky's for,
That's what the whisky's for,
That's what the whisky's for,
That's what the whisky's for.
