Barrels of Whiskey

As I stepped out me house I saw this man named Clyde

He took me by the hand saying I'll take you for a ride

I said I cannot go there there are things to get done

He said boy you must cause I ain't got a son

There's a little secret no one should know

Deep into the forest we both gotta go

I show you the way I earn my daily bread

But dare not to reveal it or you gonna loose your head

I make barrels of whiskey it ain't no champagne

It's served in our brothels to keep away the pain

What I share with you my lad

Is the biggest secret I've ever had

I make barrels of whiskey it ain't no champagne

It's served in our brothels to keep away the pain

See the soldiers at war on the battle field

They've got more than a gun my whiskey is their shield

Look at the crippled and wounded down the street

A passport to hell and a bottle to their feet

You don't leave a child or a sweetheart behind

This is our secret vow so boy don't be blind

I make barrels of whiskey it ain't no champagne

It's served in our brothels to keep away the pain

What I share with you my lad

Is the biggest secret I've ever had

I make barrels of whiskey it ain't no champagne

It's served in our brothels to keep away the pain

What I share with you my lad

What I share with you

I make barrels of whiskey it ain't no champagne

It's served in our brothels to keep away the pain

What I share with you my lad

Is the biggest secret I've ever had

I make barrels of whiskey it ain't no champagne

It's served in our brothels to keep away the pain
