We drank cheap whisky burnin' down our teenage throats
A fire on the end of a hand rolled smoke
We were flyin' so high we thought we were birds
Till we crashed back down with our head in the dirt
We were born with a hunger
Always reachin' for something stronger
Make the flame burn a little longer
We were reachin' for something stronger come on
She liked me coz I was a back street racer
I was seventeen I loved the smell of burning rubber and that gasoline
Always had to be the first one over the line
Looking back now it's dumb luck I'm still alive
We were born with a hunger
Always reachin' for something stronger
We'd make the flame burn a little longer
We were reachin' for something stronger come on
She was a heartbreak waitin' on a dance floor
One little kiss and I knew she wanted more
She said let's go out back yeah just you and me
Her lips taste like whisky from Tennessee
We were born with a hunger
Always reachin' for somethin' stronger
Make the flame burn a little longer
We were reachin' for something stronger come on
Always reachin' for something stronger
To make the flame burn a little longer
We're always reachin' for somethin' stronger ooooh weee
We were searchin' for something stronger
She gave me something she gave me something a little stronger
That whisky business something stronger"
