Whiskey

I thought I was old fashioned
Til Manhattan threw a twist
Now I'm speakin' easy
As I work my way down fifth

I'm a callin' and McCallen
The ringin' just won't stop
Tossed around the tumbler
Landed on the rocks

So who put the whiskey in the wine drawer
Been searchin' all day in vain
Who put the whiskey in the wine drawer
Was it Johnnie, Jack or James

Well a Dewars or a dontcha (Oh please do)
Want some comfort from the south
Put the Bulleit in the bottle boys
Gonna drown our sorrows out

Heaven's Door is open
Redemptions on the way
Gonna find the smoothest ride
Sailing on a Paper Plane

So tell me who put the whiskey in the wine drawer
Been searchin' all day in vain
Who put the whiskey in the wine drawer
Was it Johnnie, Jack or James

Scotch is a whiskey that is smoky
Bourbon is the caramel on your tongue
Rye brings the spice of grass and pepper
What's your pleasure, gonna pour a heavy one

So, who put the whiskey in the wine drawer
Been searchin' all day in vain
Who put the whiskey in the wine drawer
Was it Johnnie, Jack or James

Yeah who put the whiskey in the wine drawer
Been searchin' all day in vain
Who put the whiskey in the wine drawer
Was it Johnnie, Jack or James
Was it Jenny, Joan or Jane
