Goudie, Rex - Whiskey Lullaby Lyrics
[REX:]
She put him out like the burning end of a midnight cigarette.
She broke his heart. He spent his whole life trying to forget.
We watched him drink his pain away, a little at a time,
But he never could get drunk enough you get her off his mind,
[REX AND MELISSA:]
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 till 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.
[MELISSA:]
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.
[REX AND MELISSA:]
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 downin 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.
La la la la la la la,
La la la la la la la...

Goudie, Rex Whiskey Lullaby Comments
COMMENT BELOW IF YOU'RE STILL LISTENING TO THIS SONG IN 2019! MY PROUD NEWFOUNDLAND GIRLFRIEND KIMMY GIBBETS FROM TILTING HARBOUR LISTENS TO THIS SONG EVERYDAY!
Wow what a beautiful job of singing "whiskey Lullaby" - The Best
Yeah . . . Melissa crushes this song ! :)
I believe Rex Goudie makes this song what it is , contrary to the person who said otherwise - then some people naturally like to put down people from NFLD. Is it the result of all those NASTY jokes????
the guy didnt put down Rex because he is from NFLD, quit being so insecure, be proud to be from NFLD. The person put down Rex, because he cant sing very good, and I agree, It has nothing to do with him being a Newfie. He aint in her league
It has nothing to do with NFLD.
Rex can't do opera. But his voice, his style is perfect for this song.
the angels got on da bluestar and got a .5 on da tic and went down to the corner stone and ran into dem bys from shea heights and fuckin johnny buckmasterd em!
Sorry, Rex can't sing but Melissa is the bomb and without her this song would just sit there. I know the YouTube page is from a Rex fan and I don't mean to hurt your feelings but he can't hold a candle to Mel.
dark matters brought me here lol
Haha me too
This is so beautiful
NEWFIE FOR LIFE ME BUDDY
ReidGaming are you from Newfoundland - Canada?
