I just wrote a little something to keep this thread alive, and I see that the awards have been issued. So this one's just for fun...

Tune: Kentucky Woman, by Neil Diamond

Kentucky River

Kentucky River
It shines with its own kind of light
You look at it once
And you see it's on fire, yes that's right
Full of whiskey
Yes full of whiskey

Kentucky River
I want to be there
I want to smell the air
Kentucky River

Well the bourbon's the kind
Makes heads turn at the drop of its name
Yes Wild Turkey flows free
And the river flows on, full of flame
Full of whiskey
Yes full of whiskey

Kentucky River
Flowing through Lawrenceburg
Past the distillery
Kentucky River

I don't want much
A barrel of whiskey beneath my feet
A gentle touch
On my lips and tongue,
And life is sweet and good
Ain't no doubt
I'm talkin' about

Kentucky River
I want to be there
Whiskey in the air
Kentucky River
