lyrics

Take back the daughters of history
Take back the soft edges of sin
The fruit and the vine
The dangerous time
You can keep me honest
Only you can keep me honest

Make way for the daughters of history
Stand back for all of their majesty
I'm not the one
Who's having the fun
You have kept me honest
Only you have kept me honest

It's the devil in the whiskey
It's the devil in the whiskey not me
It's the devil in the whiskey
It's the devil in the whiskey not me

We're in love with a face like the moon
Eyes like the skies over Delaware
We fell in love far too soon
History, I'm in love with your daughters
I'm in love with your daughters

It's the devil in the whiskey
It's the devil in the whiskey not me
It's the devil in the whiskey
It's the devil in the whiskey not me
