LYRICS

Written by Jonathan Pierce

Verse 1

I’m calling her tonight

Been about a week since the fight

She’s out there, somewhere 

Her mama don’t know 

But i know, where she goes

 

Chorus

She’s at the neon whiskey

When they turn on the sign

She bumps an 8ball

and smokes that dime

If I don’t go and save her

I’ll lose my mind

She’s dancing like a devil

On stage tonight 

 

Postchorus

At the neon whiskey

She’s drunk on Neon Whiskey

 

Verse 2

It's next to a truck stop

My friend saw her car there

When I pulled into the parking lot

She was taking shot after double shot

She looked at me and doesn’t care

So I just sweared at

 

Chorus

The neon whiskey

when they turn on that sign

She bumps that 8 ball 

and smokes another dime yeah

But If I don’t go and save her

I’ll lose my mind ya’ll

She’s dancin like a devil

On stage right

 

Postchorus

At the neon whiskey

She’s drunk on neon whiskey

Oooh She doesn’t even miss me

Girl you don’t even miss me. Oooh yeah

 

Bridge

Well I used to tip like a sinner

Now I stand with the saints

She says she don’t believe that

My God can heal her pain but 

When she speaks it rains

But she don’t know he reigns 

She only feels her pain yeah

 

Chorus

She’s at the neon whiskey

stays out all night

No She don’t listen

When she smokes that dime

Yeah i want to save you

‘For l lose my mind

or you lose more light

Or Your life, in those lines

 

Post chorus

Damn you Neon whiskey 

Don’t you turn on that sign

Oooh I pray the neon whiskey

Loses all power tonight, over your life girl
