“Whiskey Me Away” by Jason Aldean

The title of this song (“Whiskey Me Away”) is a play on words of a popular term that actually goes whisk me away. Said expression, within the context of a narrative such as this, points to the concept of one being swept off of his or her feet, if you will. And accordingly the featured narrative revolves around the vocalist addressing a romantic interest whom he forms a profound, whiskey-assisted rapport with.

Most of the lyrics read as if the addressee is someone whom the narrator is now becoming acquainted with. The clearest hint of such is relayed in the bridge, where Jason counts himself “lucky” for “(coming) through this long-lost highway town”, i.e. stumbling across a bar in some remote locality that serves as the setting of this song. 

More specifically, the reason he considers himself fortunate is because, as stated, he meets a lady there, and the two of them proceed to do some hard chillin’. And to reiterate, as implied by the title whiskey plays an important role in this story, as said intoxicant is loosening the two of them up not only socially but also romantically.

So basically, the singer and addressee two “lonely” souls who just happen to randomly cross paths, get boozed together and have a good time, ‘slow dancing’ and all. And in that regard the singer is may indeed count himself “lucky” in that it appears the pair may end up spending the night together.
