Rye Whiskey, Rye Whiskey, Rye Whiskey I cryyyyyy-
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 cryyyyy
If I don?t get Rye Whiskey, I surely will die!

I live on Clintch Mountain and Wander Alone,
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 cryyyyy
If I don?t get Rye Whiskey I surely will die!

I eat when I?m hungry and I drink when I?m dry and if that tree don?t fall on me-
I live til? I die!
If a tree don?t fall on me, I live til I die-

Rye Whiskey, Rye Whiskey, Rye Whiskey I cryyyy
If I don?t get Rye Whiskey I surely will die
If I don?t get Rye Whiskey??..

I surely will die.
