Baptized in Bourbon

Baptize me in bourbon
Baptize me in bourbon
Baptize me

Baptize me in bourbon
Fill me up, lay me down
Give me bottles, plastic cups and shot glasses
Pour my troubles out and let 'em drown in the bourbon
Until all my dirt is gone
I learned my lessons, count my blessings
Take my messes all and baptize 'em in bourbon

Sipping on some whiskey and I'm listening to Stapleton
Meditating on mistakes I said I'd never make again
Devil tried to call me but I put him on hold
Offered me a home, then he left me in the cold

Now I'm all alone, left me with these skeletons
Lungs full of smoke so I guess I'm back in hell again
Tried to blow it out but this flame is getting hoter
Now I'm left to try and put it out with this muddy water

So take the top off the bottle, let me take it
Put my lips to that bourbon, let me taste it
Take this pain that I've got and erase it
Wash my cares away

Take the top off the bottle, let me take it
Put my lips to that bourbon, let me taste it
Take this pain that I've got and erase it
Wash my cares away

Baptize me in bourbon
Fill me up, lay me down
Give me bottles, plastic cups and shot glasses
Pour my troubles out and let 'em drown in the bourbon
Until all my dirt is gone
I learned my lessons, count my blessings
Take my messes all and baptize 'em in bourbon

I'ma empty out my promises, pour 'em in your glass
Let the wind blow, I'm gone with it, strike another match
Regret I got a lot of it reflecting on my past
I burnt a few bridges that I wish I had back, back

Forgive me father for a life that's to fast
Tell me pick up the pieces that are lying in the ash
If I had an ounce a round for every time I should've asked
I could fill an empty river, baptize me in that

So take the top off the bottle, let me take it
Put my lips to that bourbon, let me taste it
Take this pain that I've got and erase it
Wash my cares away

Take the top off the bottle, let me take it
Put my lips to that bourbon, let me taste it
Take this pain that I've got and erase it
Wash my cares away

Baptize me in bourbon
Fill me up, lay me down
Give me bottles, plastic cups and shot glasses
Pour my troubles out and let 'em drown in the bourbon
Until all my dirt is gone
I learned my lessons, count my blessings
Take my messes on and baptize 'em in bourbon

Fill me up, lay me down
Give me bottles, plastic cups and shot glasses
Pour my troubles out and let 'em drown in the bourbon
Until all my dirt is gone
I learned my lessons, count my blessings
Take my messes all and baptize 'em in bourbon
