Whiskey Wonderland Lyrics


Well I've been lost and I've been found
And I've seen the Devil in the foreground
As the bottle cap turns and my fingers burn
We raise a glass for hope
And as the bottle smashes down and I turn around
The Devil he makes no sound (HEY HEY!)

It's a long way home when you're walking all alone
Walkin' in a Whiskey Wonderland
And it's a long way back, better hope that you don't crack
Walkin' in a Whiskey Wonderland

Oh I've been high and I've been low
And I've seen the Devil, he's come and go
As the bottle cap turns and my fingers burn
I lift a glass for hope
And as the house burns down
And I turn around
The Devil he makes no sound (HEY HEY!)

It's a long way home when you're walking all alone
Walkin' in a Whiskey Wonderland
And it's a long way back, better hope that you don't crack
Walkin' in a Whiskey Wonderland
And it's a long way home when you're walking all alone
Walkin' in a Whiskey Wonderland
And it's a long way back, better hope that you don't crack
Walkin' in a Whiskey Wonderland

And it's a long way home
And it's a long way home
And it's a long way home
And it's a long way home

It's a long way home when you're walking all alone
Walkin' in a Whiskey Wonderland
And it's a long way back, better hope that you don't crack
Walkin' in a Whiskey Wonderland
And it's a long way home when you're walking all alone
Walkin' in a Whiskey Wonderland
And it's a long way back, better hope that you don't crack
Walkin' in a Whiskey Wonderland
