Watch rising Country singer Kip Moore's music video for "Last Shot" and check out the lyrics to this Country Music tune , . .
Kip Moore released Last Shot as the second single from his third album Slowheart. Moore’s prior albums included the 2012 debut album Up All Night; and his 2015 album Wild Ones. Last Shot explores the meaning and journey of life as a friend struggles with a terminal illness. “When we first talked about the video for this song, I felt like I wanted to tap into the deeper meaning behind it,” Moore said in a release. “How that feeling of desperation and realization that every second matters, can sometimes be the motivation you need to really take action. I’ve always been a big believer of living in the moment and I hope people are inspired in some way by this video to do the same.” Watch the “Last Shot” music video and check out the lyrics below.
Well, baby love’s just one of those words, just gets thrown around
Like Jack and Coke, sitting on the bar when it gets watered down
So I ain’t gonna say it, oh I ain’t gonna lie
If you wanna known the truth, how I feel about you tonight
If you were my last breath, I’d just wanna hold ya
If you were my last night I ever had on wheels, I woulda drive you like I stole ya
If you were my last shot, last shot of whiskey
I’d press you to my lips, take a little sip
Swirl you around and around and around
Then I’d shoot ya down
So baby let me look at you and see just what I got
If you were my cherry stem I’d tie you in a knot
And if I could inhale you, oh baby I’d be gone
I’d be floating round high as the Colorado sky blowing smoke rings all night long
If you were my last breath, I’d just wanna hold ya
If you were my last night I ever had on wheels, I woulda drive you like I stole ya
If you were my last shot of whiskey
I’d press you to my lips, take a little sip
Swirl you around and around and around
Then I’d shoot you down
Last call, last chance
Last dance I was ever gonna get to take
If you were my last breath, I’d just wanna hold ya
If you were my last night I ever had on wheels, I woulda drive you like I stole ya
If you were my last shot of whiskey
I’d press you to my lips, take a little sip
Swirl you around and around and around
Then I’d shoot you down
Then I’d shoot you down
If you were my last breath
Well, I’d just wanna hold ya
The SLOWHEART album features over 13 tracks including: acute accounts of loss and longing (“Plead the Fifth”), confusion and conviction (“Bittersweet Company”), frivolous falsehood (“Blonde”) and always daring to dream (“Guitar Man”). “I want to be an artist that moves people to their core and that they hold onto forever,” he says. “That’s what got me into this; it was all for the purity of the music. I never gave two shits about money and fame,” he adds. “It was all about the songs.”
