In my truck, flyin' down a dirt road Pickin' you up, feeling kinda crazy I think I'm in luck 'cause I know my baby She slaps my knee, says boy why you smilin'? Doin' my best, so hard to hide it I know what's up, so I just shoot her a wink 'Cause when the sun goes down, it'll get a little hotter Make an ol' boy's heart beat a little harder I know I can't lose 'cause It's goin' down smooth tonight, baby One ain't enough ma'm may I have another Sittin' 'round the fire getting drunk on each other Every day I pray, I thank God I got her She's the moon in my shine, the whiskey in my water (whiskey in my water) When we pass Flint bridge, I break out the bottle Drop it down low, crank up the throttle I'm good to go, 'cause I got you tonight, baby 'Cause when the sun goes down, it'll get a little hotter Make an ol' boy's heart beat a little harder I know I can't lose 'cause It's goin' down smooth tonight, baby One ain't enough ma'm may I have another Sittin' 'round the fire getting drunk on each other Every day I pray, I thank God I got her She's the moon in my shine, the whiskey in my water Mm, yeah Sittin' on this hill with her Lookin' in them baby blues Wishin' that the sky would change I've been thinkin' 'bout it all damn day I can hardly wait 'Cause when the sun goes down, it'll get a little hotter Make an ol' boy's heart beat a little harder I know I can't lose 'cause It's goin' down smooth tonight, baby One ain't enough ma'm may I have another Sittin' 'round the fire getting drunk on each other Every day I pray, I thank God I got her She's the moon in my shine, the whiskey in my water Whiskey in my water Whiskey in my water, yeah, yeah, yeah

I can't get down Down from this high High as a waterfall If hearts could fly Want you to breathe Breathe next to me Caught in this lullaby Sing it to me I wanna drown in your holy water You know a sin never felt so good I wanna drown in your holy water A-amen (a-amen, a-amen) I wanna drown in your holy water You know a sin never felt so I'm all shook up Shook up on you We burn like fireflies Burn baby blue 'Cause I'm so deep Deep into you You are my church tonight My holy view I wanna drown in your holy water You know a sin never felt so good I wanna drown in your holy water A-amen (a-amen) I wanna drown in your holy water You know a sin never felt so good I wanna drown in your holy water You know a sin never felt so You know a sin never felt so good

I am alone I am alone in the shadows of the stars I'm gettin' older and this world seems so far Breathe, swallow me in the street holiday I need a vacation from this declaration of the end Maybe it's time To cross the finish line You won't wake me up I need a saint, I need a God I was swimmin' in holy water Water, holy water Now I'm drownin' down the river Down the river Down the river I was clean Set me free in the valley of the butterflies I'm still too young to recognize the Devil Deep, I fell deep And the sun burns my eyes I need the revelation Got a premonition of the end You won't wake me up I need a saint, I need a God I was swimmin' in holy water Water, holy water Now I'm drownin' down the river Down the river Down the river I was swimmin' in holy water Water, holy water Now I'm drownin' down the river Down the river Down the river

All night long we drank sugar water Trying to keep the heat at bay I was poor, she was a poor man's daughter But we weren't too poor to play We couldn't buy wine, we couldn't buy beer Even Drag Donald's mash was a little too dear So we just laid back with that sugar water And we let the night roll on It was late July, dry as a bone Dust laying heavy on the fields She'd sneak out of her unhappy home And meet me by the water mill She'd steal a little sugar, I'd bring a little cup And when the sun went down we'd stir it all up Yeah we just laid back with that sugar water And we let the night roll on She's taking down her hair, slipping off her shoes She's dancing to the rhythm of the midnight blues The sugar and the sweat, trailing down her skin You know it hit me harder than bath-tub gin – all right Time goes by, the world moves on Age comes creeping up behind The creek's been dammed, the water mill's gone Ain't nobody pays the slightest mind That poor man's daughter is a rich man's wife She danced away from me into a whole other life But I just keep tasting that sugar water When we let the night roll on She's taking down her hair, slipping off her shoes She's dancing to the rhythm of the midnight blues The sugar and the sweat, trailing down her skin You know it hit me harder than bath-tub gin – all right

I was drinking When you saw me Pain written on my face I couldn't help you You couldn't help me I'm sick of feeling this way You looked lost, hmm-hmm-hmm When you saw me running to you It was love, hmm-hmm-hmm But I guess that wasn't enough How do we break if my heart's still beating? Love is not fake when someone's leaving How do we break if my heart's still beating? Love is not fake In holy water (wooh-ooh-ooh) Wash away the shame In holy water (wooh-ooh-ooh) Wash away the blame Wash away the shame In holy water (wooh-ooh-ooh) Wash away the blame I was scheming Begging, not believing All the things you used to say Scared I'm losing All my patience Giving too much away You looked lost, hmm-hmm-hmm When you saw me running to you It was love, hmm-hmm-hmm But I guess that wasn't enough How do we break if my heart's still beating? Love is not fake when someone's leaving How do we break if my heart's still beating? Love is not fake In holy water (wooh-ooh-ooh) Wash away the shame In holy water (wooh-ooh-ooh) Wash away the blame I was lost and broken hearted Couldn't be the same In holy water (wooh-ooh-ooh) Wash away the blame How do we break if my heart's still beating? Love is not fake when someone's leaving How do we break if my heart's still beating? Love is not fake (In holy water) How do we break if my heart's still beating? (Wooh-ooh-ooh) Love is not fake when someone's leaving (in holy water) How do we break if my heart's still beating? (Wooh-ooh-ooh) Love is not fake (fake, fake, fake, fake, fake) In holy water, hmm-hmm-hmm Wash away the blame In holy water, hmm-hmm-hmm Wash away the pain
