Mit Rye Whiskey (Roggen Whiskey) der irischen Band JigJam geht (für mich) die alkoholfreie (Fasten-) Zeit zu Ende:
Rye Whiskey makes the band sound better

Rye whiskey makes your heart beat louder
Makes your voice seem softer, makes the back room hotter, oh, but
Rye thoughts aren’t good thoughts, boys
Have I ever told you about the time I
Rye whiskey wraps your troubles up into a bright blue package
Ties a bow around it, oh, boy
Just throw it on the pile in the corner
See, you’re not alone in not being alone tonight, but
Rye love isn’t good love, boys
Have I ever told you about the time I
I used to wake up bright and early
Got my work done quickly, held my baby tightly, oh, boy
Rye whiskey makes the sun set faster
Makes the spirit more willing but the body weaker because
Rye sleep isn’t good sleep, boys
Have I ever told you about the time I
Took it and took her for granted?
How I took it and took her for granted?
So let’s take some and take them all for granted
Oh, boy
Der Song Roggen-Whiskey ist eine Coverversion der Punch Brothers.
