uncle kracker - whiskey and water lyrics

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 fuckin 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 fuckin done

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 could a been a saint, but i choose the wrong path
i ain't no dummy, take the money and laugh, uh
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

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

uh, i'm headin south an old whiskey road
livin life like a story that doesn't need to be told
it's gettin 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, h
i seen the future and it's lookin pretty grim, uh
i'm gonna win, but not like that
so i'm takin what i got and i ain't never comin back

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
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
