lyrics

Whiskey On Your Stone

Remember when we landed it was humid it was hot
Four day operations, we were walking point a lot
Humping through the jungle, how thirsty it got
Man do you remember
Remember when we’d stop, set up for the night
Spread out in a circle, hope the moon don’t get too bright
Prayin’ it don’t rain, just waitin’ for the light
Man do you remember

Been a while now since I talked to you
‘Bout all the crazy times ‘we had
All the hell that we walked through
The good, the ugly, and the bad
Can’t share this stuff with no one else
I don’t like talkin’ to myself
And you know I don’t like to drink alone
( 2nd chorus: And you know how much I hate to drink alone)
So here I am again - pourin’ whiskey on your stone

Remember all the dreams we shared over coffee and some spam
You were gonna drive for NASCAR, I’d be a music man
When we got back to the world, we sure had big plans
Man do you remember
Often times I think about the way that day went down
If I’d been standin’ where you were, I’d be layin’ in that ground
But that ain’t how it happened and there ain’t no peace I’ve found
But it helps me to remember
Repeat Chorus
