From the recording Whiskey get Busy
“Whiskey Get Busy” Written by Jon Philibert is a traditional country heartbreaker with a honky-tonk edge, telling the timeless story of love lost and the bottle that’s always there to pick up the pieces. With raw honesty and a nod to legends like Hank, George, and Merle, Jack Clark delivers a modern classic that feels both fresh and familiar — a whiskey-soaked anthem for anyone who’s ever needed a strong pour to forget a stronger pain.
Lyrics
Whiskey Get Busy There ain’t no getting round it I have lost her. What else can I say it’s down to me. She found out I’d been cheatin’ and she left me. Now I’ve got to stop this hurtin’ and I know the remedy. Chorus: I said whiskey, get busy, do what you gotta do. I wanna be forgettin her, before the night is through. The more I get to drinkin’ the less I’ll get to thinkin. So whiskey, get busy, I’m dependin’ on you. Whiskey I have heard your reputation. I everyone of those old country songs. Ease all of the pain and drown the memories. Well Hank and George and Haggart. Hell they can’t all be wrong. Chorus: I said whiskey, get busy, do what you gotta do. I wanna be forgettin her, before the night is through. The more I get to drinkin’ the less I’ll get to thinkin. So whiskey, get busy, I’m dependin’ on you. Instrumental Bridge: So come on give it all you got. Do you your best with every shot. Chorus: I said whiskey, get busy, do what you gotta do. I wanna be forgettin her, before the night is through. The more I get to drinkin’ the less I’ll get to thinkin. So whiskey, get busy, I’m dependin’ on you. Yeah whiskey, get busy, well I’m, I’m dependin’ on you.
