Any one have the lyrics to the Ray Stevens song - Jack Daniel's you lied to me again?
I can get most of it off the recoding but am having trouble with the Old Jim Beam verse.

Thanks
Dick

Hi, Dick - can you give us what you have? Maybe we can help with the rest. I tried a search, and came up with all sorts of nasty popups. If you try a Google search for a distinctive phrase from the song and not just the title, you may have better luck.

The Tennessee whiskey is actually called Jack Daniel's, so that's how I spelled it in these lyrics.

Transcribed from a .wav file at this page.

(That page also has many other Ray Stevens songs.)

JACK DANIEL'S, YOU LIED TO ME AGAIN
(Bruce Innes)

You started talking soon as I sat down, giving me tips on love,
Saying how I was good-looking, the kind of guy most women were dreaming of.
Then after just about an hour or so, you started pointing out the girls I should get to know.
Sure enough, I thought I fell in love. You kept saying, "Go, man, go!"

CHORUS: But, Jack Daniel's, you lied to me again. (Yes, you did.)
You told me that she was the greatest thing that ever happened to a man.
You said this was it, she was the one, and I'd still be in love when the morning comes,
But, Jack Daniel's, you lied to me again. (Yes, you did.)

I used to count on old Jim Beam*, but he kept letting me down.
He'd line me up with a rodeo queen; next day, she'd be looking like a rodeo clown.
Jose Cuervo* couldn't find me a beauty, and Johnny Walker* failed when he said he could.
Yeah, all of you fellows are real smooth talkers, but your eyesight's not too good. CHORUS

I'm forgetting about wine women and song,
And the next time I go out, you ain't coming along. CHORUS

[JACK DANIELS (sic), YOU LIED TO ME AGAIN appears on Ray Stevens' album "20 Comedy Hits Special Collection."
*Jim Beam = brand of bourbon
*Jose Cuervo = brand of tequila
*Johnny Walker = brand of Scotch]

Jim,
Perfect - thanks.
I'm not sure I would have gotten it without your help.
