hank williams iii – whiskey, weed and women lyrics

as i watch the sun
set slowly, i hold back the tears
and i can’t help but wonder
why the lord had to put me here

’caused i’ve raised h-ll
all night long
and i’ve seen a good
man go wrong

and i can’t help
the way that i am
’cause the whiskey, weed and women
had the upper hand

livin’ lonely
is the life that i been livin’
i got drunk
the day my paw went to prison

and when my mama died
i just didn’t care about livin’
and i drank myself blind
just tryin’ to find a good reason

and i’ve raised h-ll
all night long
and i’ve seen a good
man go wrong

and i can’t help
the way that i am
’cause the whiskey, weed and women
have the upper hand

yeah, the whiskey weed and women
have the upper hand, hand, hand
