Rye Whiskey

Jack o Diamonds

Jack o Diamonds and I know you of old

You've robbed my poor pockets of silver and gold

Its a whiskey you villain

You've been my downfall

You've kicked me you've cuffed me

But I love you for all

Its a whiskey rye whiskey rye whiskey I cry

If I don't get rye whiskey well I think I will die

Ill eat when I'm hungry

Ill drink when I'm dry

If the hard times don't kill me

Ill lay down and die

Ill tune up my fiddle and

I ll rosin my bow

Ill make myself welcome wherever I go

Rye whiskey rye whiskey rye whiskey I cry

If a tree don't fall on me Ill live till I die

If the ocean was whiskey and I was a duck

Id dive to the bottom

To get one sweet suck

But the ocean ain't

Whiskey and I ain't a duck

So well round up the cattle

And then well get drunk

Rye whiskey rye whiskey rye whiskey I cry

If the whiskey don't kill me Ill live till I die
