Lyrics
[guitar solo]
Verse 1: In the heart of the night, where the embers glow,
An old man sits, with a tale to show.
The barn’s ablaze, but he don’t mind,
With a bottle of whiskey, he’s feeling fine.
Chorus: Whiskey and flames, oh, they light up the night,
He’s got a grin, and he’s feeling alright.
While the world burns down, he’s got no shame,
Just an old man laughing, in the whiskey and flames.
Whiskey and flames, oh, they light up the night,
He’s got a grin, and he’s feeling alright.
While the world burns down, he’s got no shame,
Just an old man laughing, in the whiskey and flames.
Verse 2: The cows are gone, the fields are ash,
But he’s got memories, that forever last.
With every sip, he sees the past,
A life well-lived, and a love so vast.
Chorus: Whiskey and flames, oh, they light up the night,
He’s got a grin, and he’s feeling alright.
While the world burns down, he’s got no shame,
Just an old man laughing, in the whiskey and flames.
Whiskey and flames, oh, they light up the night,
He’s got a grin, and he’s feeling alright.
While the world burns down, he’s got no shame,
Just an old man laughing, in the whiskey and flames.
Bridge: He says, “Life’s too short to worry 'bout the fire,
I’ve seen it all, and I’ve climbed higher.
So pour another drink, and let it be,
This old farm’s just a memory.”
Chorus: Whiskey and flames, oh, they light up the night,
He’s got a grin, and he’s feeling alright.
While the world burns down, he’s got no shame,
Just an old man laughing, in the whiskey and flames.
Whiskey and flames, oh, they light up the night,
He’s got a grin, and he’s feeling alright.
While the world burns down, he’s got no shame,
Just an old man laughing, in the whiskey and flames.
Outro: As the dawn breaks, and the fire dies,
He raises his glass to the morning skies.
With a heart full of peace, and a soul untamed,
He’ll always be smiling, in the whiskey and flames.
