sour mash (ardent sessions) - cory branan lyrics

[spoken]
alright, memphis, of course, gave the world rock and roll
tennessee gave the world quite a few things
uh, this one’s just right behind rock and roll for me
you’d think they gave the world jesus christ himself the way** many churches around here, but
this is a little closer for me, it’s a song about my drinkin’ choice and it’s really dumb and it’ll be over in a few seconds
it’ll be over for you in a few seconds

[verse]
the town i come from’s mostly sky
even though the county’s dry
that didn’t stop the stream nearby
from giving us a daughtеr

she was born in a barrel of american oak
shе’s made of sugar, maple, and charcoal smoke
she just goes to show your folks
what god can do with water

[chorus]
when i go below the gloomy ground
you better buy the room a round
let her weep and lift a glass
of bittersweet ‘n’ sour mash
(i got lost…)
[verse]
once when i was going through
those same old famous, same old blues
tired of either crying to you
or cussin up a quarrelin’
yes, i slipped and sipped astray
only took one taste to see the way
back to tennessee to stay
tennessee my darlin’

[chorus]
and when i go below the gloomy ground
you better buy the room a round
let her weep and lift a glass
of bittersweet ‘n’ sour mash

[verse]
now i don’t want no beaujolais
sake, cider, chardonnay
you keep tequila far away
you know what i’m cravin’
ain’t champagne all fine and chilled
it’s not all rot*gut ‘shine, and swill
you ask me, life’s a cask
of bittersweet sour mash
[chorus]
and when i go below the gloomy ground
you better buy the room a round
let her weep and lift a glass
of bittersweet sour mash

[spoken]
thank you, very good
alright, y’all should have drinks at these things
(distant)
no, not for me, just for the* for y’all
