Well, the whiskey makes you sweeter than you are
If I'd quit drinkin' sooner, I'm sure I wouldn't have gone that far
Now the haze has lifted I can see
That the whiskey makes you sweeter than you could ever really be

I started slow and steady, I went from Cola to a beer
I made a resolution from the liquor I'd steer clear
When I saw you there, somethin' inside of me switched off
And when I switched to the whiskey, then I knew that I was gone

'Cause the whiskey makes you sweeter than you are
If I'd quit drinkin' sooner, I'm sure I wouldn't have gone that far
Now the haze has lifted I can see
That the whiskey makes you sweeter than you could ever really be

"Sweets for a sweetheart", that is what you said to me
As you handed me a shot glass, and drank down hungrily
I was lost in dreams of sweet things, runnin' through my head
If it wasn't for the whiskey, I'd have run away instead

'Cause the whiskey makes you sweeter than you are
If I'd quit drinkin' sooner, I'm sure I wouldn't have gone that far
Now the haze has lifted I can see
That the whiskey makes you sweeter than you could ever really be

Oh yes, the whiskey makes you sweeter than you could ever be to me
