Watch the official music video for Smithfield’s Hey Whiskey Song and check out the story behind the song and lyrics to this tune below.
Smithfield is a Country music duo made up of Jennifer Fiedler and Trey Smith. The two singers grew up together in Texas and later headed to Nashville to further their Country Music careers. Jennifer came up with the initial idea for “Heh Whiskey” and shared some of the story behind the song stating, “the whole entire time, she’s upset at the bottle because she loves this man and she can’t get over him because of the whiskey. And so, it’s been told a million times, but I feel like we really nailed the perspective in a way you haven’t heard it before. If you didn’t know the title, if you just listened to the first verse, the way we painted the picture was, you immediately think, “Oh my gosh, that guy is cheating on her,” but he’s not. So, I love it; I’m proud of it. I think it’s one of the best songs we’ve ever written, to date“.
Heh Whiskey Lyrics
I can tell he’s been with you on nights like this
And when you come on strong, he just can’t resist
You don’t know all the hell you’ve put me through
And he can’t let me go, when he’s holding you
Hey whiskey, why you gotta make him miss me
Why’s he only call me up when he throws you down
Wanting me more with every round
Hey bourbon, why you gotta leave him burning
And feeling that old flame he used to have when he was with me
Hey whiskey
I’m only on his mind when you go to his head
And he starts pouring out, all the words he never said
How can either one of us start moving on
When every night he spends with you reminds him that I’m gone
Hey whiskey, why you gotta make him miss me
Why’s he only call me up when he throws you down
Wanting me more with every round
Hey bourbon, why you gotta leave him burning
And feeling that old flame he used to have when he was with me
Hey whiskey
Why am I the one that ends up feeling empty
Hey whiskey, why you gotta make him miss me
Why’s he only call me up when he throws you down
Wanting me more with every round
Hey bourbon, why you gotta leave him burning
And feeling that old flame he used to have when he was with me
Hey whiskey
Oh whiskey
