"Whiskey you're no friend of mine

I trusted you and you robbed me blind

Of everything I had and you took your time

Whiskey you're no friend of mine

You left me face down in the freezing rain

All I wanted to do was drink away my pain

I've got nothin' left but my own shame

Whiskey you're the one to blame"

"No Friend of Mine" was originally released on October 14, 2022, on the duo's debut album, War Hippies. The album made quite the impact, debuting at No. 8 on the iTunes Country Chart and reaching No. 30 across all genres in its first week. To date, it has amassed over 2 million streams.
