Original Songs by Kent Newsome

Finest Addiction


She comes smiling in the evening
With a bottle in her hand
She says I'll be your whiskey woman
If you'll be my liquor man

And we'll sit out on my back porch
Till we drink that bottle dry
I'll say you're better than old bourbon
She'll say we should go inside

Chorus:
And you can take a drink of me
And you can take a drink of me
I'll be your finest addiction
And you can take a drink of me

You know she's my best bad habit
She's a monkey on my back
And I don't want no twelve step program
To make her stop doing that

Sometimes she makes me so thirsty
When she looks at me that way
She says come here and sit beside me
And I'll take your thirst away

Chorus:
And you can take a drink of me
And you can take a drink of me
I'll be your finest addiction
And you can take a drink of me

I can hear the crickets calling
And it's such a lonesome sound
I'm sitting on my front steps waiting
For that old sun to go down

She comes smiling in the evening
With a bottle in her hand
She says I'll be your whiskey woman
If you'll be my liquor man

Chorus:
And you can take a drink of me
And you can take a drink of me
I'll be your finest addiction
And you can take a drink of me

And you can take a drink of me
And you can take a drink of me
And you can take a drink of me
And you can take a drink of me
