Holy smoke and holy water From dole-eyed girl to prodigal daughter
Did a devil dance to a fiddle and a holler This angel's hail on the heavenly fire
I was saccharine and sugarcane Tiptoeing on the fence
Pinned up like a thundercloud Chomping at the bit
Ran crooked as a creek, baby My innocence was pure
Had mama sweating bullets from my soul She wasn't sure
He was 21, a whole lot of fun Flattered from a gun
And we went up in holy smoke and holy water
From dole-eyed girl to prodigal daughter Did a devil dance to a fiddle and a holler
This angel's hail on the heavenly fire
And he lit me up like cigarettes I drank up tonight
Like an early misty morning fog He ghosted out of town
Made me locomotive crazy, mind-blowing not easy
Right off the tracks, couldn't ease at the crossroads
Time to get them back, yeah, I was rising in the black
Holy smoke and holy water
Daughter, prodigal daughter
Did a devil's dance to a fiddle and a holler
As angels hail the heavenly fire
Flys in my hair, I ain't got a prayer
Still somewhere in between
Holy smoke and holy water
Daughter, prodigal daughter
From doe-eyed girl to prodigal daughter
Did a devil's dance to a fiddle and a holler
As angels hail the heavenly fire
Did a devil's dance to a fiddle and a holler
From doe-eyed girl to prodigal daughter
Still somewhere in between
Holy smoke and holy water
