Sunshine & Whiskey Lyrics

Every time you kiss me it's like sunshine and whiskey.
Chilling on a beach with my sweet Georgia peach.
Not a care in the world, just trying to beat the heat.
Body like an hourglass, sand on her feet.
I can't help but stare cause I got the best seat.
Just when I thought it couldn't get any hotter you slid on in,
Said, "I'm a little hot and bothered, if you know what I mean.
Let's crank it up to a hundred degrees."

Alright, you hit me like fire, shot me like a bullet.
Burned me up and down, no way to cool it.
Every time you kiss me it's like sunshine and whiskey.
It's like a bottle of Jack straight to the head.
One shot, two shot, copper tone red.
Every time you kiss me it's like sunshine and whiskey.

Slow driving south with the drop top down,
Hair in the wind, Tom Petty up loud.
You gave me that look, you licked them lips.
I said, "Hang on baby, better pull over for this."
Don't wanna get DWK, driving while kissing they'll put you away.

You hit me like fire, shot me like a bullet.
Burned me up and down, no way to cool it.
But every time you kiss me it's like sunshine and whiskey.
It's like a bottle of Jack straight to the head.
One shot, two shot, copper tone red.
Every time you kiss me it's like sunshine and whiskey.
Every time you kiss me it's like sunshine and whiskey.
Every time you kiss me it's like sunshine and whiskey.

Well you hit me like fire, shot me like a bullet.
Burned me up and down, no way to cool it.
But every time you kiss me it's like sunshine and whiskey.
Hit me like fire, shot me like a bullet.
Burned me up and down, no way to cool it.
But every time you kiss me it's like sunshine and whiskey.
Like a bottle of Jack straight to the head.
One shot, two shot, copper tone red.
Every time you kiss me it's like sunshine and whiskey.
Every time you kiss me it's like sunshine and whiskey.
Every time you kiss me it's like sunshine and whiskey.
Every time you kiss me it's like sunshine and whiskey.
Every time you kiss me it's like sunshine and whiskey.

Sunshine & Whiskey

Ballard released a live video of the song in which he prefaced the tune by labeling it "self-explanatory." He added with a laugh, "I've found myself in a little bit of trouble from time to time in my music career, in a honky tonk and being on the road, and the two things that have always put me there, in trouble, are women and whiskey, and that's what this song is about."

Ballard told Radio.com the song helped him find the sound he was looking for on his sophomore album. "The way we arranged it, sonically speaking, that sound is going to be identifiable with the record," he explained. "It's a fun song, 'Every time you kiss me, it's like sunshine and whiskey.' It's a summertime thing."

The song also worked as an album title as well. "I felt like it really wrapped its arms around all the songs," Ballard said. "If nothing else, maybe people in Walmart will look at it and go, 'Sunshine and whiskey?' and at least give it a second glance."

This was written by Jaren Johnston (Tim McGraw's "Southern Girl," Keith Urban's "You Gonna Fly") and Luke Laird (Carrie Underwood's "Undo It," Little Big Town's "Pontoon.") Johnston told Roughstock about the day the pair wrote this song at Laird's house. "After we hashed out the song that day, I kind of took the track home to work it up," he said. "It was kind of different from what we had first done. I just started rapping on it. I sent it to Luke, and I think his text said 'OMG, someone is going to cut that!' We were so excited."

"Luke and I write together all the time," added Johnston. "We always have a blast. We'll just find an 80s beat and just start rapping over it. It's hilarious."

Don't You Wanna Fall Lyrics

I'm a high wire act, without a net
I'm a tips all in on a losing bet
I"m a minor cord on an old guitar
I'm one too many in a crowded bar

Don't You Wanna Fall
Don't you wanna fall
Fall down here where an angel should know better than
To walk around this world with me
All the girls love to talk about forever
From way up here the talk is always cheap
Don't you wanna fall
Don't you wanna fall

You're that first good buzz at seventeen
You're the good guy winning on the movie screen
You're a candle burning in the church in Rome
You're a first class ticket on the last plane home

But don't you wanna fall
Don't you wanna fall
Fall down here where an angel should know better than
To walk around this world with me
All the girls love to talk about forever
From way up there the talk is always cheap
Don't you wanna fall
Don't you wanna fall

Fall down here where an angel should know better than
To walk around this world with me
All the girls love to talk about forever
From way up there the talk is always cheap
Don't you wanna fall
Baby don't you wanna fall

Don't You Wanna Fall

Ballard explained that this Travis Meadows and Jeremy Spillman penned song is about a singer who is "a high-wire act without a net." The Michigan native added that the singer is with a woman he wants off the pedestal that he's put her on. "He's saying, 'Come down here to my level where it's real,'" said Ballard.
