Whiskey with Water Lyrics by Jordi Baizan

Whiskey with Water
© 2017-2018 Jordi Baizan (ASCAP)
Tony hated fifth grade and his hand-me-down clothes
Clara made his heart race, but she didn’t know
Until a bully pushed Clara up against the playground fence
And Tony crashed a bat into that tough guy’s head
You can’t wish away the evil in this world
It’s like trying to wash away the devil in the whiskey with water
Tony got older and married too young
He felt his only daughter Mia was his last chance at love
But she grew up wild and died in a heroin den
Tony’s heart went black and his mind put the law in his hands
You can’t wish away the evil in this world
It’s like trying to wash away the devil in the whiskey with water
Before the roses had dried on the funeral wreath
Tony loaded the shotgun and the AR-15
He knew exactly what he had to do        
He tracked down the dealer who was sitting at home
The bastard had no clue he didn’t have a long
‘cause there’s going to be trouble when an angry dad’s coming for you
A broken tail light / put a halt /  to Tony’s obsession
The routine traffic stop led to charges of illegal weapons possession
He got four years, but with the Lord’s help, he’ll serve two
But Jesus won’t stop him from seeing that dirty job through
You can’t wish away the evil in this world
It’s like trying to wash away the devil in the whiskey with water
You can’t wish away the evil in this world
It’s like trying to wash away the devil in the whiskey with water
