(Bill Anderson/Jon Randall)
Brad Paisley & Alison Krauss (Brad) She put him out like the burnin' end of a midnight cigarette She broke his heart, he spent his whole life tryin' to forget We watched him drink his pain away a little at a time But he never could get drunk enough to get her off his mind, Until the night. Chorus: (Both) He put that bottle to his head and pulled the trigger And finally drank away her memory Life is short but this time it was bigger Than the strength he had to get up off his knees We found him with his face down in the pillow With a note that said I'll love her 'til I die And when we buried him beneath the willow The angels sang a whiskey lullaby. La la la la la la la La la la la la la la. La la la la la la la La la la la la la la. (Alison) The rumors flew but nobody knew how much she blamed herself For years and years she tried to hide the whiskey on her breath She finally drank her pain away a little at a time But she never could get drunk enough to get him off her mind, Until the night. Chorus: (Both) She put that bottle to her head and pulled the trigger And finally drank away his memory Life is short but this time it was bigger Than the strength she had to get up off her knees We found her with her face down in the pillow Clinging to his picture for dear life We laid her next to him beneath the willow While the angels sang a whiskey lullaby. La la la la la la la La la la la la la la. --- Instrumental --- La la la la la la la La la la la la la la. --- Instrumental --- La la la la la la la La la la la la la la. La la la la la la la La la la la la la la... |

4 posts | rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal I loved this song even when I first heard it - and still love it! The melody, the smooth mode, the voices, the lyrics, everything is in a great harmony... And to McKlusky, I also read "Where the Red Fern Grows", i agree, that was a nice and miserable story, just as this song! |

Thank you for your comments on Whiskey Lullaby --Suicide is Very stupid...If only the people who do it, could see how much hurt they put into a family. It really sucks...-- I know it may be hard to believe... but that really made me think about my committing suicide. I didnt really think about how bad it would hurt my friends. I'm only 13 and im already smoking weed and drinking. I fell in love with a guy after know him for a week (we did everything including having sex) and now i miss him so much. hes one of my brothers friends but he's not allowed to come over. i'm scared i'll never see him again. At one point i was so sad i thought about commiting suicide for a few days. I dont think i will now though because i dont want to hurt my friends and family so much. thank you again, erin *im sooo sorry about ur brother committing suicide* |

8 posts | rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal I only read the first page of posts on this song, but already it seems that there are alot of people who like this song. Personally I like, for two reasons.......... 1) it is about a love that never got to be...i find that interesting....and it involved suicide in a way that most don't understand.......someone loved someone else soooo much that they couldn't live without that person 2) the music/lyrics/voices of this song were truley amazing......I agree that haunting is a good way to describe the sounds and effects. I wish that no one had to understand suicide, I wish that no ones love had to be that hard, and I wish that people who loved eachother would always be together. Oh, btw, to those who think suicide is a selfish act......it is not selfish to the person wanting to commit suicide. To the person who wants death, they think that their death will aleiviate the suffering of other.........there entire intent is NOT to ONLY releive their own suffering, at the point of suicide, the person is thinking more about the good their death will do for others! getting off soap box now....... all in all, great song! ~me |

319 posts | rhythm melody instruments lyrics vocal i think this is one of the best and saddest songs i've ever heard. i love the video, i think it's so sad but it has a nice ending, with the couple dancing under the tree after she was buried, and the little girl watching. i think of it like they both died because they loved each other, and when it didn't work for them while they were living, they could still be together forever after they died. i loved the song even more after watching the video. after the first time i heard the song i wanted to cry, and songs don't often do that to me, only the best ones can. i hadn't paid much attention to brad paisley or allison krauss before this song, and i was amazed by their voices and when i found out it was them and i had to go right out and buy his cd. |

54 posts | I keep seeing people saying stuff about Suicide here...SDuicide isn't the theme of this Song...Depression & Alcololism to the Point of Alcohol-Poisoning are the Theme...& I keep reading stuff about the Glorification of Suicide. This confuses me. As someone who has, on numerous Occasions, Attempted Suicide, I must say that there is no Song I have EVER Heard which Glorifies the Act. Everything I've heard on that Subject seems to me to be an attempt to find the Rason for the act of taking One's Own Life, or a Translation of the Contemplation of performing said Act into Song-Form. Frankly it Conserns me that anyone would a)Associate ths song with Suicide when it's about something Else entirely, & b) Suggest that it Intentionally Encourages Suicidal Tendencies.
Someone, please kindly Explain to me where all this is Coming from...I'd like to understand where you Folks wh have these Concepts are coming from...Just for the Sake of being on the Same Page... |
