Subject: Lyr Add: World of Whiskey (Whisky Anthem) From: Oehne Date: 03 Jan 08 - 04:30 PM Hi folks, just heard a good new song performed by Robin Laing called World of Whiskey (or Whisky Anthem) Chorus: From the Lowlands to the Highlands From Japan to the Hebrides From Orkney to Kentucky And the far Antipodes From Tennessee to Canada And Ireland's emerald land There's a world of whisky out there So let's have another dram There's a world of whisky out there So let's have another dram Here's to the corn and the maize The barley and the rye Here's to the good old angels Floating up on high Here's to the worms and the washbacks The still house and the vats The wood so tight – a lovely sight Hoggies, barrels and butts It's better for you than red wine Less calories than beer You can drink it any time of day And any time of year You can pour it on your porridge Dab it behind your ears In the hallowed halls of alcohol Whisky has no peer From the Lowlands to the Highlands From Japan to the Hebrides From Orkney to Kentucky And the far Antipodes From Tennessee to Canada And Ireland's emerald land There's a world of whisky out there So let's have another dram There's a world of whisky out there So let's have another dram Here's to the guys who drink the stuff A little or a lot And here's to the guys who sell it to 'em What a difficult job they've got Here's to the whisky blenders May their noses be insured But the guys who make it – you can take it The keys to heaven are yours Whisky for the heart Whisky for the soul Whisky stands for friendship And stories to be told And all around the world Whenever whisky's poured The hatred of the past will end at last And peace will be restored Chorus… Good whisky song... isn't it? Your's Frank (from Hannover-Germany) |
