lyrics

My daddy kept his hope in a reservoir
Whiskey distilled in a mason jar
Taught me everything I about breaking hearts
And how getting back up is the hardest part

My momma had faith and wore it well
But it didn’t fit me when I was raising hell
And around 16 I finally figured out
There was one way to be free

I could follow my heart to heaven
The wayward down to hell
Or tuck my way into some middle ground
Between my whiskey jar and the heart of God,
There’s a simple understanding:
I’ll be drinking when I’m happy & praying when I’m sad;
Baptized in well spirits

Then Friday night on the Johnny Cash show,
We were bathing in the light of the TV glow
He sang, “Walk the line” and he sang it slow
Like he knew what was on my mind

Then Sunday morning the preacher said
“You just listen to the words in red”
Well, I read Jesus turned the water into wine

I could follow my heart to heaven
The wayward down to hell
Or tuck my way into some middle ground
Between my whiskey jar and the heart of God,
There’s a simple understanding:
I’ll be drinking when I’m happy & praying when I’m sad;
Baptized in well spirits

I found the road that split towards good or evil
And knew I’d have to carve another way
