Lyrics Water for the Wicked - Robben Ford

4. Water for the Wicked 4: 23
(Robben FordMichael McDonald)
All the misguided people
Have no place to rest
Given to their misdeeds
And driven from their best
And breakin′ in to the midnight hour
A fire is in their breast
Water for the wicked
Water for the wicked
Just a drop to cool his tongue
The law will lower the hammer
From where will mercy come
So many burn with a fever
They're lookin′ for relief
Greed becomes a desert
And it makes a man a thief
His life becomes a gamble
His mind is filled with grief
Water for the wicked
Water for the wicked
Just a drop to cool his tongue
The law will lower the hammer
From where will mercy come
If we seek
Will we find
Find the childlike heart we left behind
There is the light from which all mercy comes
Water for the wicked
Water for the wicked
Just a drop to cool his tongue
The law will lower the hammer
From where will mercy come
