Lyrics:
No I'm not goin' crazy, but lately my head and my heart
Seem to be at least a million miles apart
My heart says to love ya
My head says to run
It's like my heart is to afraid to tell my head when it's done
I know that it can never be the way it was
Even though you'll be the death of me I can't give you up
Too much is not enough;
it's not the love, it's not the lust that grips me
It must be the whiskey
I've been drinkin' to remember and drinkin' to forget
I got "I love you" on my mind, I got Jim Beam on my breath
And loneliness has got the rest, I've got nothin' left within me
It must be the whiskey
No I'm not goin' crazy, but lately these thoughts in my head
Are a whirlwind of a world of a million regrets
All the things I should've done, all the things I should've said
All the pain that comes with hatin' the mess you've made of yourself
I know I'm chasin' rainbows thinkin' I could make it work
But the fact is that my actions speak louder than my words
And it only makes it worse thinkin' of her, thinkin' she'll forgive me
It must be the whiskey
I've been drinkin' to remember and drinkin' to forget
I got "I love you" on my mind, I got Jim Beam on my breath
And loneliness has got the rest, I've got nothin' left within me
It must be the whiskey
I've been drinkin' to remember and drinkin' to forget
I got "I love you" on my mind, I got Jim Beam on my breath
And loneliness has got the rest, I've got nothin' left within me
Sometimes it hits me whenever I'm a little tipsy
Oh, it hits me whenever I'm a little tipsy
It must be the whiskey
It must be the whiskey
It must be the whiskey
It's that whiskey
It must be the whiskey

More truth than a damn church sermon. This man single handedly manages to capture the experience we go through. I can relate his songs to any part of my life at one point and time.
Used to listen to this while we were digging tunnels. Sounded great echoing underground 12 hours a day. Head home and drink em down and do it all again. You'd feel like complete shit loading carts looking back on it we had fun.

You can tell Cody put a lot of thought into this album. The writing is at a entire new level I didn't knew existed! He knows how to write songs that people can relate to easily. I love that he did so much work with other artists like Josh Morningstar and so many others... 2018/2019 is the season for the Jinks! He's done everything off the skin of his back for 20 years it's about time a record label has picked him out and is allowing him to keep being him. AND he is part of the biggest family of artist that strive to pick each other up NOT knock them down.. He is a class act!

Me mate use to play this all the time in Afghanistan. I loved rap and I hated lesteing to his songs, but you get to point where it gets stuck in ur head. you know the full lyrics and sing along. Now I'm rocking cody jinks everytime I get wasted at home🤣
Just recently took my 15 year old son to see Cody jinks and he rocked the stage with his music for sure!! We loved all his songs!!
This has become my favorite song these days!! Such a catchy tune & the words are so relatable!! Love it❤🎤🎶❤
This is some of the best music I've heard in at least a decade. Real music about real life. I'm very impressed. Thank you, Cody.

I love this song ♥️♥️🔥🥃🤠🎶🎸
Was a whiskey drinker for years, love this awesome song can relate so much, Cody is a great artist
His music needs to be on country radio more more more. Come on music execs. This is country at its finest. I’ll do my apart to get you more sales!!
God this song is SO relatable!! It explains my situation pretty much to the point
At first, I didn't really like this song. My mom introduced me to it, and I just didn't see the appeal. Then, it came on a playlist of country songs, and I listened to it again. I saved it, and listened again. And again. And again. And now I can't stop listening. It grows on you, and it's fantastic.
I love this song and Codys music. Really solid sound and style
Such a jam!!!! Cody never disappoints!! Can't wait for the album, already preordered!!!
Boy there ain't nothing like the sound of a steel guitar and they got this one singing its heart out.
i been drinkin to remember,i been drinkin to forget i got i love you on my mind,i got jim beam on my breath must be the whiskey for sure. i lived 20 years in the bottle the song fits now if sissy country would kick ga fla line out n play this we be very happy people

Cody Jinks, Ward Davis and Tennessee Jet, I went to both concerts in Papillion Nebraska, never got to see the whole concert. What's so awesome and badass,... These guys and the band are like us!!!! We live, work hard and stand up for family, all military and what we believe in!!! I'm a hippie wild child, I'm not the devil and I never Cast Stones!!! I'm hard core to my Bone's!!!! I'm a true fan and I will be grateful for the music!!! Cody Jinks and all the guys and their bands, kick-ass, keep us little people like me going!!! Work, family take care of business and my spending money is on concert tickets
Love my country
Josh Morningstar wrote a great song. Cody Jinks made it sound great. Great team. They should definitely collab more!
"IT MUST BE THE WHISKEY"; IT'S SUCH A GREAT EXCUSE.
What a catchy lil' tune!! Definitely a typical Jinks song!! Gotta ❤ it!!
The song is amazing, if a different artist sang it, like Eric church or someone similar this song would be massive
Love from England, I've listened to your sounds that much my head is rotating and my eyes are flipping. Really get me in the feels. My folks always played country music in the 70s and 80s when I was growing up. Great to be back ❤
My husband and i have been together 14 years and we both love your music.we need a date night cody jinks. Would sure love that date night to include attending one of your concerts.covid 19 has kept us at home.thank god 🙏 for utube.

So glad for this album made me leave a self sabotaging ex that ran around, lied and and brought the wrong stuff around. Should of known when we saw him and Clint Black in person and he talked all the way through the show , should have been a dead give away.
I been drinkin to remember and drinkin to forget, I got I love you on my mind, I got Jim beam on my breath
What a great song! Where I am at now 🤪
This man is my idol 🤘🏻where did all the real lyrical cowboys go?💯
Reminds me of a guy I had to no longer see. Soon as he got out of military it was Jim Beam. My exhusband is an alcoholic. Didn't need another!
Countryzão bala, esse aí.
Ooooooooo it hits me!
I love you Kody! Yr an amazing person! I love you and yr band! My life sucks but I find happiness in every single song you sing!
Cody is King of Country that is all
The lyrics hit so hard. This song is a masterpiece
Catchy tune. I'm a rocker and probably more into progressive than anything else. My favorite country tunes are Buck Owens - "Cigarettes Whiskey And Wild Wild Women," The Rolling Stones "the Girl with Far Away Eyes," and "One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer" version by George Thorogood even though Amos Milburn wrote it in the 50's.
❤️ such an awesome song. I saw you 4 times last year and it wasn’t enough!!
Good shit
I just found his music but dammm i'm stuck
Another favorite!!!
I dont fuck wit country music but homeboy ripping dis track!
I love this song! 💖💖💖I get it on my mind and sing it for days/weeks after hearing it! This should be on top 40 country/western chart.💖💖💖My husband and I would love to see you on Southeast Louisiana!
I love the steel guitar wailing in the background!!!!
Love this song. It is real. Have been. Done that. Five years sober.
