Rye Whiskey - Live at Piazza Napoleone, Lucca, Italy - July 2009

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
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'll 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
