nick cave the bad seeds - rye whiskey lyrics
Loading...
jack of diamonds, jack of diamonds, i know you most of all
you’ve robbed my poor pockets of silver and gold
and whiskey, you villain, you’ve been my down-fall
you’ve cuffed and you’ve kicked me but i loved you of old
oh whiskey, rye whiskey, whiskey i cried
if i don’t get rye whiskey i surely will die
well i go yonder mountain and build me a still
and i send you a gallon for a five dollar bill
well it’s beefcake when i’m hungry, whiskey when i’m dry
and it’s greenbacks when i’m hard off and h-ll when i die
if the sea were made of whiskey and i was a duck
i’d swim to the bottom and never come up
oh, but the sea ain’t made of whiskey and i ain’t a duck
so i play jack of diamonds and trust on my luck
