Pete Seeger - Rye Whiskey lyrics
[Pete Seeger - Rye Whiskey lyrics]
Rye whiskey, rye whiskey, rye whiskey I cry
If you don't give me rye
Whiskey I surely will die
If the ocean was whiskey and I was a duck
I'd dive to the bottom and never come up
Rye whiskey, rye whiskey, rye whiskey I cry
If you don't give me rye
Whiskey I surely will die
Way up on Clinch Mountain I wander alone
I'm drunk as the devil, just leave me alone
Rye whiskey, rye whiskey, it's whiskey I cry
If you don't give me rye
Whiskey I surely will die
I'll eat when I'm hungry
I'll drink when I'm dry
If a tree don't fall on me
I'll live 'til I die
Rye whiskey, rye whiskey, it's whiskey I cry
If you don't give me rye
Whiskey I surely will die
It's whiskey, rye whiskey, rye whiskey I cry
If you don't give me rye
Whiskey I surely will die
If you don't give me rye
Whiskey I surely will die
If the ocean was whiskey and I was a duck
I'd dive to the bottom and never come up
Rye whiskey, rye whiskey, rye whiskey I cry
If you don't give me rye
Whiskey I surely will die
Way up on Clinch Mountain I wander alone
I'm drunk as the devil, just leave me alone
Rye whiskey, rye whiskey, it's whiskey I cry
If you don't give me rye
Whiskey I surely will die
I'll eat when I'm hungry
I'll drink when I'm dry
If a tree don't fall on me
I'll live 'til I die
Rye whiskey, rye whiskey, it's whiskey I cry
If you don't give me rye
Whiskey I surely will die
It's whiskey, rye whiskey, rye whiskey I cry
If you don't give me rye
Whiskey I surely will die
