Whiskey On Ice Lyrics - Singles - Jesse Ruben

They met in the back of bar 

Somewhere outside Atlanta 

And she gave him a wink 

When he ordered a whiskey on ice 

She said, "Cowboy, 

I don't trust you one little bit" 

He said, "You should go back 

To the man that you're with 

Here tonight, here tonight" 

She said, "I don't know how much 

It's going to cost me to love you 

I don't know how much 

I'm going to lose in this fight 

I don't know how much 

It's going to cost me to love you 

But baby, I'll try, baby I'll try" 

Seven days later she 

Came to his door with a letter 

That she wrote late at night 

As she tried not to cry in her room 

She said, "Somewhere inside 

I know you're a good man" 

He said, "I try to hide it 

As best as I can, it's too soon" 

He said, "I don't know how much 

It's going to cost me to love you 

I don't know how much 

It's going to damage my pride 

I don't know how much 

It's going to cost me to love you 

Baby, I'll try, baby, I'll try" 

Many years later he met her 

Alone on a sidewalk 

She asked, "Are you still drinking whiskey 

Or have you moved on?" 

He said, "I'm not the man 

That I was when we met" 

She said, "I'm not the woman 

I was way back then, we were young" 

And they both said, "I don't know 

How much it's going to cost me to love you 

I don't know how much 

I'm going to lose in this fight 

I don't know how much 

It's going to cost me to love you 

But baby, I'll try, baby, I'll try" 

They both said, "I don't know 

How much it's going to cost me to love you 

But I wanna know what it's like 

When you kiss me goodnight 

I don't know how much 

It's going to cost me to love you 

But baby, I'll try, baby, I'll try 

Baby, I'll try, baby, I'll try"
