Shane Smith & The Saints Whiskey & Water Lyrics

American Dream
It's real
It's something I've seen

And it all begin as a no name band
With a fiddle and rock and roll

And cigarette smoke

She's the devil and she's someone I know

She whispers to me through the laughter
And every now and then I just give in

Whiskey and water
And girls without fathers

A headache tomorrow

A Hail Mary to make me feel sane
What happens dear mother the day I forget how to pray

How to pray

We shot the arrows
We Chased them down like old vaqueros

We drove through the night in the darkness
Until the cold was just too much to take

I broke ya down The thought of us racing through towns

I swore it would just last through the season
But god knows that winters long gone
Long gone

Whiskey and water
And Girls without fathers

When she leaves tomorrow
A Hail Mary will make me feel sane

But What happens dear mother the day I forget how to pray
How to pray

And that next towns lights get to shining so bright
But I find my self feeling home
And I'm sorry

Whiskey and water
Girls without fathers

And we leave tomorrow
A Hail Mary will make me feel sane
Please help me dear mother to never forget how to pray
How to pray
