Whiskey & Water Songtext
Please send me a sign
And set me up against the lane
Give me something I can trust
In all the drama and change
I followed a dream
And if a man is born to fall
Then let me live against my creed
In all the filth of it all
And I can drink
My whiskey and water and
Fix folly and peace
′Cause there's a price you pay
To live this way, it′s called ill at ease
Please drop me a line
And send me love and sun to boot
'Cause I am idle, drunk and well
Busy with nothing to do
This battle is cold
I have to make the grade alone
'Cause I have traveled far to find
I need a room of my own
Where I can
Break habit with fortune ′cause
She′s something to be
She's spending Saturdays in Partick
With the SSP
And I am charged guilty as sin
Because it hurts me to know
That she is working so hard
But for the joy of stock control
Oh let me sing out to myself
And polish off these bottle cries
And send them down to Saville Row
′Cause I'm not ready to die
But I am ready to live
Can I make it out with pride
Or play the left wing let down king
Put out with something to hide
And I can run to you for cover and
We′ll bury the dread
And when the time has come for leaving
I will love you instead
Oh won't you sing something in minor key
This stillness is bleak
Could we dream away the
Guilt we have for the working week
And in the warm arms of a stranger I′m
Too happy to lie
I know we've both been here before
Just please don't ask me why
And I have walked here with you close to me
But never alone
Oh won′t you cling to me in major key
You′re the joy I've known
Oh the joy I′ve known
Oh the joy I've known
Oh the joy I′ve known
Oh the joy I've known
Oh the joy I′ve known
La la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la
And set me up against the lane
Give me something I can trust
In all the drama and change
I followed a dream
And if a man is born to fall
Then let me live against my creed
In all the filth of it all
And I can drink
My whiskey and water and
Fix folly and peace
′Cause there's a price you pay
To live this way, it′s called ill at ease
Please drop me a line
And send me love and sun to boot
'Cause I am idle, drunk and well
Busy with nothing to do
This battle is cold
I have to make the grade alone
'Cause I have traveled far to find
I need a room of my own
Where I can
Break habit with fortune ′cause
She′s something to be
She's spending Saturdays in Partick

And I am charged guilty as sin
Because it hurts me to know
That she is working so hard
But for the joy of stock control
Oh let me sing out to myself
And polish off these bottle cries

Oh the joy I′ve known
Oh the joy I've known
Oh the joy I′ve known
Oh the joy I've known
Oh the joy I′ve known
La la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la la la la
La la la
