Iron & Wine, Sima Cunningham, Macie Stewart - Like Patsy Would lyrics

If it comes from the whiskey
Then pour me a drink
If it comes from the heartache
Let me feel the sting
If it comes from the spirit's
Set 'em loose in this room
Either way tonight it's just me and the truth

I wanna pray like Jesus is list'nin'
I wanna play like I'm made of strings on wood
I wanna write it down like Hemingway
Like it's the last damn thing I'll ever say
And try to sing it like Patsy would

Sometimes it's a blessing
Sometimes it's a curse
I've let it keep me up all
Night lookin' for the worst
Somеtimes a pen knows just what to say
And it spills out like a watеrfall
On a clean white dais

I wanna pray like Jesus is list'nin'
I wanna play like I'm made of strings on wood
I wanna write it down like Hemingway
Like it's the last damn thing I'll ever say
And try to sing it like Patsy would
Gonna try to sing it like Patsy would
