Turnpike Troubadours - Ringing In the Year lyrics
[Turnpike Troubadours - Ringing In the Year lyrics]
About the letter that you sent
It was no one else's business
It was barely even mine
And the situation went the
Way the situation went
We shook that shit off of our
Shoes a hundred thousand times
Well won't you miss your
Whiskey in the wintertime, my dear
The way that I've been missin' you this fall?
And cheap champagne don't dull the pain
Of ringin' in the year
Wond'rin' if you think of me at all
Well the fool I loved in Kansas was
The fool I loved the best
You were fool enough to fall in love with me
We were two tornadoes touching down
Out in the old Midwest
And we did our best at dodging the debris
Well won't you miss your
Whiskey in the wintertime, my dear
The way that I've been missin' you this fall?
And cheap champagne don't dull the pain
Of ringin' in the year
Wond'rin' if you think of me at all
With a little more resolve I might
Be somewhere else with you
But, I make no resolution of the kind
So I guess it's just God bless
And you did all that you could do
Let all acquaintance be forgot and
Never brought to mind
Two roman candles cut across a January sky
Well won't you miss your
Whiskey in the wintertime, my dear
The way that I've been missin' you this fall?
And cheap champagne don't dull the pain
Of ringing' in the year
Wond'rin' if you think of me at all
Well I still wonder about you sometimes
Y'know?
