You put some whiskey in the water
I`m 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
I`m 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

You put some whiskey in the water
I`m 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
I`m 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 s**t

You put some whiskey in the water
I`m 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
I`m gonna run off with your daughter
And if I make it to the border
I`m gonna be alright

Uh, I`m headin` south on 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 light`s too dim, uh
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
I`m 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
I`m 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
I`m 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
I`m gonna run off with your daughter
And if I make it to the border
I`m gonna be alright
