NEVER DID LIKE WHISKEY
(Kenny O'Dell)


Billie Jo Spears - 1976



I read what's goin' on in your mind
And that might just be alright
But right now all I'm lookin' for's a good time
So no need to start that grinnin'
If you think you'll have me sinnin'
I'll tell you where I'm at here and now

Well, I never did like whiskey
But I sure do love to dance
Just to hold me close, talk to my ear
And say sweet things no one's gonna hear

Well I like the bright lights, I sure love the moonlight
And I love to listen to the band
Well, I never did like whiskey
But I sure do love to dance

(Instrumental Break)

I don't go actin' like a baby
I only told you maybe
And just what makes you think that I'm that kind
I'm not makin' you a promise
Where later on might find us
Right now I've got music on my mind

'Cause I never did like whiskey
But I sure do love to dance
Just to hold me close, talk to my ear
And say sweet things no one's gonna hear

Well I like the bright lights, I sure love the moonlight
And I love to listen to the band
Well, I never did like whiskey
But I sure do love to dance

Well, I never did like whiskey
But I sure do love to dance
