Sniper’s Nest ©2016 Robert George BMI

I’ve been shootin’ Johnnie Walker Red
Ever since my girlfriend headed west
All those shots are goin’ to my head
And my broken heart’s a sniper’s nest

When she first accused me of shootin’ from the hip
I tried actin’ innocent and playin’ dumb
I swore nothing happened while on that business trip
But that steamy photo was a smoking gun

So I’m shootin’ Johnnie Walker Red
Ever since my lady headed west
All those shots are goin’ to my head
And my broken heart’s a sniper’s nest

One more bottle from the old corner market
One more evening with a lotta time to kill
Though tomorrow is a fast moving target
I have learned that yesterday stands still

I’ve been shootin’ Johnnie Walker Red
Ever since my girlfriend headed west
All those shots are goin’ to my head
And my broken heart’s a sniper’s nest
My broken heart’s a sniper’s nest

Some nights I just shoot my mouth off at a local dive
Cursin’ her and chasin’ Brand X rotgut with Colt .45
But most nights I’m three sheets to the wind on teardrop seas
Because this old shotgun shack will trigger happy memories

I’ve been shootin’ Johnnie Walker Red
Ever since my lady headed west
All those shots are goin’ to my head
And my broken heart’s a sniper’s nest

Yeah, those shots are goin’ to my head
And my broken heart’s a sniper’s nest
A sniper’s nest….
