Lyrics Rye Whiskey (Live) - Dave Matthews Band

This is an old traditional song from the States
Thank you all very much, this has been a wonderful night, grazie
It′s called "Rye Whiskey", it's a drinking song

"Rye whiskey, rye whiskey, rye whiskey", I cry
If I don′t get rye whiskey I surely will die

If the ocean was whiskey and I was a duck
I'd swim to the bottom and never come up
I'd swim to the bottom and never come up

"Rye whiskey, rye whiskey, rye whiskey", I cry, a bad day
If don′t get my whiskey I surely will die

I live on Clinch Mountain, I wander alone
I′m as drunk as the devil so leave me alone
I'm as drunk as the devil so leave me alone

"Rye whiskey, rye whiskey, rye whiskey", I cry
If I don′t get my whiskey, surely will die

I eat when I'm hungry, I drink when I′m dry
And if a tree don't fall on me I′ll live 'til I die
If a tree don't fall on me I live ′til I die

"Rye whiskey, rye whiskey, rye whiskey", I cry
If I don′t get my whiskey I surely will die
If I don't get my whiskey I surely will die
