She put him out like the burnin’ end of a midnight cigarette
She broke his heart, he spent his whole life tryin’ to forget
We watched him drink his pain away a little at a time
But he never could get drunk enough to get her off his mind
Until the night

He put that bottle to his head and pulled the trigger
And finally drank away her memory
Life is short, but this time it was bigger
Than the strength he had to get up off his knees
We found him with his face down in the pillow
With a note that said, ‘I’ll love her till I die.’
And when we buried him beneath the willow
The angels sang a whiskey lullaby

The rumors flew but nobody knew how much she blamed herself
For years and years she tried to hide the whiskey on her breath
She finally drank her pain away a little at a time
But she never could get drunk enough to get him off her mind
Until the night

She put that bottle to her head and pulled the trigger
And finally drank away his memory
Life is short, but this time it was bigger
Than the strength she had to get up off her knees
We found her with her face down in the pillow
Clinging to his picture for dear life
We laid her next to him beneath the willow
While the angels sang a whiskey lullaby

Prevod pesme

Viski uspavanka

Ugasila ga je kao žar ponoćne cigarete
Srce slomila mu je, pokušavajući da zaboravi čitav život proveo je
Gledali smo ga kako utapa tugu u alkoholu, malo po malo
Ali nikad nije bio u stanju da se napije dovoljno da ne misli na nju
Do te večeri

Prislonio je tu bocu sebi uz glavu i povukao okidač
I napokon je uz piće zaboravio
Život je kratak ali to je ovog puta bilo jače
od snage koju je imao da ustane sa kolena
Našli smo ga s glavom u jastuku
Uz pisamce u kojem je pisalo, ‘Voleću je dok ne umrem.’
A kad smo ga ispod vrbe sahranili
Anđeli su viski uspavanku pevali

Glasine širile su se ali niko nije znao koliko je ona krivila sebe
Godinama se trudila da sakrije miris alkohola
Napokon je svoju bol malo po malo utopila
Ali nikad nije mogla da se napije dovoljno da ne misli na njega
Do te noći

Prislonila je tu bocu uz glavu i povukla okidač
I napokon ga uz piće zaboravila
Život je kratak ali to je ovog puta bilo jače
od snage koju je imala da ustane sa kolena
Našli smo je s glavom u jastuku
očajnički je držala njegovu sliku
Položili smo je kraj njega ispod vrbe
Dok su anđeli viski uspavanku pevali
