CHORUS: You put some whiskey in the water Gonna run off with your daughter And if I make it to the border I'm gonna be alright You put some whiskey in the water Gonna run off with your daughter And if I make it to the border I'm gonna be alright
I'm on the run the devil's tryin' to get me Says I met him at a pawn shop down in Mississippi I was an angel lookin' for another face I must a bumped my f**kin' head when I fell from grace I found a place in the sun like Stevie And now I gotta wonder cause the rain don't believe me I need to breathe, take the money and run I put my faith in one place and now I'm f**kin' done
REPEAT CHORUS
I could a been a saint but I chose the wrong path I ain't no dummy take the money and laugh I got the cash, did the dash for the door Now I'm sittin' on my stash and I'm feelin' like a whore I'm torn but can't think, I blink so I miss I move in strange ways, I move to dismiss I'll leave this place and when I do that's it I don't need to conclude so you can keep that shit
REPEAT CHORUS
I'm headin' south on Old Whiskey Road Livin' life like a story that doesn't need to be told It's getting' old always runnin' from the past I'm lookin' at myself in the bottom of a glass I won't last, my lights too dim I seen the future and it's lookin' pretty grim I'm gonna win but not like that So I'm takin' what I got and I ain't never comin' back
