lyrics
I saved a seat for Jesus
When she pulled in from behind
She said "Pour me a Whiskey"
"I'm not turning this water into wine"
Well my heart, did skip a beat
And it shot up like a shooting star
She said "Make me feel like the only one "
"sitting here with you in this bar"
Well I was bound for heaven
And I reached the gates of hell
I was sipping wine with Jesus
Now I'm drinking whiskey from the well
Well I'm not scared of dying
But I don't want to grow old
Yeah I need someone to hug on
Lord I need someone to hold
So I fell
My fallen angel
Who covered me in her sin
And I do miss my friend Jesus
I sure hope I see him again
Yeah I was bound for heaven
But I reached the gates of hell
Yeah I was sipping wine with Jesus
Now I'm drinking whiskey from the well
Well my friend Jesus
He's a good friend indeed
But my fallen angel
Is the one I feel I need
Drinking white lightning whiskey chasers
And she does it with a smile
So I think I'll hang with my angel
And I'll see Jesus after awhile
Yeah I was bound for heaven
But I've reached the gates of hell
Yeah I was sipping wine with Jesus
Now I'm drinking whiskey from the well
Well I was bound for heaven
But I've reached the gates of hell
Yeah I was sipping wine with Jesus
Now I'm drinking whiskey from the well
