She's got a picture of him as a drifter
she knows all about his outlaw past
he couldn't see that, gave up his freedom
she didn't even have to ask.
as far as she knows, he's over all of that
but she doesn't know how close he's come to going back

Cause the whiskey and the wind
are stronger than they've ever been
and not to now the two best friends he's ever known
they keep whispering to him
he don't need her when he's got them
so he prays to God that they don't prove him wrong again
or he'll be gone again with the whiskey and the wind

Stuck in Chicago, three feet of fresh snow
but he's got a company creditcard
the end of a long day, he eats in a cafe
across the lobby from the hotelbar
and the devil on his shoulder
reminds him he's alone
as he walks passed the bar,
to his room to call back home

Cause the whiskey and the wind
are stronger than they've ever been
and not to now the two best friends he's ever known
they keep whispering to him
he don't need her when he's got them
so he prays to God that they don't prove him wrong again
or he'll be gone again with the whiskey and the wind

oooh the whiskey and the wind
the whiskey and the wind
