Hemingway's Whiskey
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Hemingway's whiskey,
warm and smooth and mean
Even when it burns,
it'll always finish clean
He didn't like it watered down,
he took it straight up and neat
If it was bad enough for him,
you know it's bad enough for me
Hemingway's whiskey
Ah, it's tough out there,
a good muse is hard to find
Living one word to the next,
one line at a time
There's more to life than whiskey,
there's more to words than rhyme
Sometimes nothing works,
sometimes nothing shines
Like Hemingway's whiskey
Sail away, sail away,
three sheets to the wind
Live hard, die hard,
this one's for him
Hemingway's whiskey,
warm and smooth and mean
Even when it burns,
it'll always finish clean
He didn't like it watered down
he took it straight up and neat
If it was bad enough for him
you know it's bad enough for me
Hemingway's whiskey
Hemingway's whiskey
Hemingway's whiskey
