Rye Whiskey makes the band sound better
Makes your baby cuter
Makes itself taste sweeter
Oh, boy!
Rye whiskey makes your heart beat louder
Makes your voice seem softer
Makes the back room hotter
Oh, but rye thoughts aren't good thoughts
Boys, have I ever told you about the time I...
Rye whiskey wraps your troubles up into a bright blue package
Ties a bow around it
Oh, boy!
Just throw it on the pile in the corner
See you're not alone in not being alone tonight
But rye love isn't good love
Boys, have I ever told you about the time I...
I used to wake up bright and early
Got my work done quickly
Held my baby tightly
Oh, boy!
Rye whiskey makes the sun set faster
Makes the spirit more willing
But the body weaker
Because rye sleep isn't good sleep
Boys, have I ever told you about the time I took it and took her for granted?
How I took it and took her for granted?
So let's take some and take them all for granted
Oh, boy!
