"Country Baptism" lyrics
In the Kalamazoo River, that's where I left my sins
Holding a bottle of whiskey in Albion, Michigan
I once shot a man back in Baghdad, hell, it was him or me
I tried to get him to bargain, but there's a time and a place for everything
A time to heal and a time to kill
A time to be numb and a time to feel
A time to keep your hands clean, a time to go to work
A time to bury my demons in the dirt
Well, I don't need no holy water
To get me right or get my soul clean
That may have worked for my ma and papa
He ain't gonna do a damn thing for me
Dig me a hole, fill it up with whiskey
Ah, Jack Daniels for the win
This soul needs a country baptism
Ah, it's the only way that you can wash my sins
My man, he needed an angel to deal with his gospel truth
Buried his demons in the foxhole, yeah, he did what he had to do
There's a time to forgive (Time to forgive)
There's a time to forget (A time to forget)
Time to let live (Let live)
Make 'em pay the debt (Pay the debt)
It's time to bow down (Bow down)
On your knees to pray
Maybe it's time for me to pay
Well, I don't need no holy water
To get me right or get my soul clean
That may have worked for my ma and papa
He ain't gonna do a damn thing for me
Dig me a hole, fill it up with whiskey
Ah, Jack Daniels for the win (So move it, baby)
This soul needs a country baptism
Ah, it's the only way that you can wash my sins
Get the Jack, crack it open (Open)
We don't need a drink tokens (Tokens)
Make it happen, we ain't hopin' (Hopin')
Bottoms up, yeah, we copin'
Four-four on the dashboard
From the top down to the floor
Got a lot, but we still want more (More)
More (More), more
Time to walk
Time to run
A time to talk
A time to pick up the gun
Time for lovin', yeah
A time for war
It's time, what are you waitin' for?
Well, I don't need no holy water
To get me right or get my soul clean
That may have worked for my ma and papa
He ain't gonna do a damn thing for me
Dig me a hole, fill it up with whiskey
Ah, Jack Daniels for the win
This soul needs a country baptism
Ah, it's the only way that you can wash my sins
Well, I don't need no holy water
To get me right or get my soul clean
That may have worked for my ma and papa
He ain't gonna do a damn thing for me
Holding a bottle of whiskey in Albion, Michigan
I once shot a man back in Baghdad, hell, it was him or me
I tried to get him to bargain, but there's a time and a place for everything
A time to heal and a time to kill
A time to be numb and a time to feel
A time to keep your hands clean, a time to go to work
A time to bury my demons in the dirt
Well, I don't need no holy water
To get me right or get my soul clean
That may have worked for my ma and papa
He ain't gonna do a damn thing for me
Dig me a hole, fill it up with whiskey
Ah, Jack Daniels for the win
This soul needs a country baptism
Ah, it's the only way that you can wash my sins
