Whiskey Into Water

It's 2 a.m. again

He still ain't home in bed

It's all part of the job, that's what he says

He lies about the proof

But we both know the truth

'Cause I can always smell it on his breath

I swear he's taken me to hell and back

And Lord, I hope it ain't too much to ask

Could you send him a message in that bottle?

'Cause you're the only one that he might listen to

You turned water into wine, God, my heart is on the line

He's got one more shot and I'm passing it to you

All this forgivin' him is gettin' harder

Jesus, could you try turnin' whiskey into water

I know he hasn't talked

To you in a while it seems

So if you can't do it for him, do it for me

Could you send him a message in that bottle?

'Cause you're the only one that he might listen to

You turned water into wine, God, my heart is on the line

He's got one more shot and I'm passing it to you

All this forgivin' him is gettin' harder

Jesus, could you try turnin' whiskey into water

Just like in the book of John

Like only you could do

Could you work a miracle in this chapter too

And send him a message in that bottle?

'Cause you're the only one that he might listen to

You turned water into wine, God, my heart is on the line

He's got one more shot and I'm passing it to you

All this forgivin' him is gettin' harder

Jesus, could you try turnin' whiskey into water
