VERSE 1

Bartender poured me a shot
he said, "Brother

100 Proof ain't gonna take your pain away"

Looked him back said
"Please give me another"

His simple words hit me hard that day

CHORUS

Cause I built walls around my heart

So all the pain couldn't get out

Ended up crying in my beer

There is one thing that I know

If the truth needs to be told

100 Proof is never gonna save your soul.

VERSE 2

Nothing in my life has come easy

Battling demons for my soul

Can't water down the truth like it's whiskey

The Straight truth is the only way to go

CHORUS

Cause I built walls around my heart

So all the pain couldn't get out

Ended up crying in my beer

There is one thing that I know

If you wanna save your soul

The straight truth is the only way to go.

REPEAT CHORUS

TAG

100 Proof is never gonna save your soul
