Hemingway’s Whiskey
Hemingway's whiskey, warm and smooth and mean
Even when it burns, it'll always finish clean
He did not like it watered down, he took it straight up and neat
'Cause was bad enough for him, you know it's bad enough for me
Hemingway's whiskey
You know it's tough out there, a good muse is hard to find
Livin' one word to the next, one line at a time
Now there's more to life than whiskey
There's more to words than rhyme
Sometime nothin' works, sometimes nothin' shines
Like Hemingway's whiskey
Sail away, sail away as the day grows dim
Live hard, die hard, this one's for him
Hemingway's whiskey, warm and smooth and mean
Even when it burns, it'll always finish clean
He did not like it watered down, he took it straight up and neat
If it's bad enough for him, you know it's bad enough for me
Hemingway's whiskey
Even when it burns, it'll always finish clean
He did not like it watered down, he took it straight up and neat
'Cause was bad enough for him, you know it's bad enough for me
Hemingway's whiskey
You know it's tough out there, a good muse is hard to find
Livin' one word to the next, one line at a time
Now there's more to life than whiskey
There's more to words than rhyme
Sometime nothin' works, sometimes nothin' shines
Like Hemingway's whiskey
Sail away, sail away as the day grows dim
Live hard, die hard, this one's for him
Hemingway's whiskey, warm and smooth and mean
Even when it burns, it'll always finish clean
He did not like it watered down, he took it straight up and neat
If it's bad enough for him, you know it's bad enough for me
Hemingway's whiskey
