I cite the whiskey in my glass;
It be the only witness I'll allow.

I shield my actions from God and devil alike;
May it be a double, or a line of white.

For this sinner does not want pitty;
Nor would I beg for redemption.

I drown any notion of salvation;
With burning spirits at my lips.

This sinner worships only his shortcomings;
For this sinner knows the truth.
