They say if I believe I can be set free.
From worry, doubt, and anxiety.
My anger will fall down to the floor.
I won’t have to carry this baggage anymore.
That preacher man says he can dunk me.
And wash my soul clean.
(Whisper)
But I’m still askin.
Can that water really fix me.
You know Jesus turned it in to wine.
And Sutton turned it in to some mighty fine shine.
Oh Green turned it into Jack Daniel’s whiskey.
And sometimes that’s been all that saves me.
Yea being numb…
that’s what helped me.
Tell me what else,
Can that old water do for me.
Let’s start that cleanse from the inside.
That liver of mines about to pull double time.
I trust those men that came before me.
And who am I to question that alchemy.
Fill a glass.
With some of that fire drank.
Their traditions is what I’ll take.
And the good Lord and I will sit on down.
Now this halo got left hung up with all that pain
And it got a little rusted out in the rain
But He knows it’s still hangin around.
You know Jesus turned it in to wine.
And Sutton turned it in to some mighty fine shine.
Oh Green turned it into Jack Daniel’s whiskey.
And sometimes that’s been all that saves me.
Yea being numb…
that’s what helped me.
Tell me how else,
Can that water cleanse me.
Now don’t go judgin on my sin.
I know I might need dunked again.
Now I’ll head to the river in the morning if your sure.
Starting tomorrow I can try to live pure.
But for now I’ll take me another round.
Cause I ain’t pourin those men’s work on the ground.
You know Jesus turned it into the sweetest wine.
And Sutton did it right and turned it in to some mighty fine shine.
Oh and thank God Green turned it into Jack Daniel’s whiskey.
Cause more times than not that’s been all that saves me.
Yea being numb…
(Scream)
You know that’s what helped me.
Tell me just how,
Can that water ever really cleanse me.
