Baptized in Whiskey

Trouble must be my middle name

Even if it’s not my fault, I’m the one to blame

My woman thinks that I’m the devil

And I’m not sure I could argue with that claim

This hole I’m in is gettin’ deep

I hear voices in my head that make it hard to sleep

So point me in the right direction

Take me somewhere I can find some kinda peace

It’s time to go down to the river

Let the Spirit set me free

Lay my soul down in the water

Cause I’ve already been baptized in whiskey

I’ve been drunk on Johnny Walker Red

I’ve been high on pills and fame that went straight to my head

I’m tired of drowning in the darkness

Light a match until that part of me is good and dead

It’s time to go down to the river

Let the Spirit set me free

Lay my sins down in the water

Cause I’ve already been baptized in whiskey

I’ve been searching in the shadows

Darkness was all I found

Put me on the straight and narrow

Set my feet on holy ground

It’s time to go down to the river

Let the Spirit set me free

Lay my soul down in the water

Cause I’ve already been baptized in whiskey
