I was down at Whiskey River Stopped in for a drink Minding my own business Trying not to think Bartender came on over With a shot of his best Said this one's from the lady In the long black dress She came waltzing 'round the corner "Anybody sitting here?" Started taking off her gla**es And letting down her hair I said thank you for the drink ma'am How'd you know my brand She said there's certain things a woman Can tell about a man [Chorus:] I said do you like the hard kick Of old Kentucky bourbon
Or the slow burn of Tennessee rye Just when I thought I lost her in petty conversation She said slide over and kiss me I got more than whiskey in mind Oh man my heart was jumpin' Shakin' on the stool She moved a little closer And I tried to play it cool The band had started rockin' It was kinda hard to hear I ordered us a double We chased it with a beer [Chorus] I started getting dizzy from the liquor on her lips No eighty proof has ever got me buzzin' like this [Chorus]
