Just What I Needed...a Little Whiskey

You make me smile

I am intoxicated

You calm me down

When I'm irritated

You're my addiction

And my therapy

Just what I needed

A little Whiskey.

You make me laugh

At random moments

And when I cry

You give me comfort

I know I'm not alone

'Cause you're beside me

Just what I needed

A little Whiskey.

You help me live

Outside my normal

And now there's no words

Like "impossible"

I just can't get enough

It's plain to see

You're what I needed

A little Whiskey.
