не работает голова (наверно замерзла от холода)
в соседнем (почти) Цфате обещают до 0 градусов этой ночью ..
значит надо поднять этот градус ..
ставила Сане Rye Whiskey и так заслушалась сама раза 4 подряд .. бывают у меня такие карусельки (и бывают у нас с Саней такие пере .. слово забыла .. потом вспомню наверно)
значит ставлю Rye Whiskey к себе поближе и иду за стаканом (то есть в гости)
Rye Whiskey - американский виски под шотландскую мелодию
когда вернусь думаю вы все еще будете здесь или еще где-нибудь поблизости с Rye Whiskey (оно так просто не отпускает нас от себя)
это будет к поминкам вчерашним и сегодняшним
"It's beefsteak when I'm hungry, rye whiskey when I'm dry
Greenbacks when I'm hard up and heaven when I die."

If the ocean was whiskey and I was a duck
I'd dive to the bottom to get one sweet suck
But the ocean ain't whiskey and I ain't a duck
So we'll round up the cattle and then we'll get drunk

Rye Whiskey, old time banjo song (the Jim Tom Hendrick version)

слова могут петься не в том порядке ..

Rye whiskey, rye whiskey, rye whiskey I cry
If I don't get rye whiskey I surely will die
Jack of diamonds, jack of diamonds, I know you of old
You've robbed my poor pockets, Of silver and gold

If the ocean was whiskey and I was a duck
I would dive to the bottom and never come up
But the ocean ain't whiskey, and I ain't no duck
So I'll play the Jack of diamonds and trust to my luck

I'll eat when I'm hungry, I'll drink when I'm dry
And when I get thirsty I'll lay down and cry
It's beefsteak when I'm hungry and whiskey when I'm dry
Greenbacks when I'm hard up and heaven when I die

Whiskey, you villian, you've been my downfall
You've kicked me, you've cuffed me, But I love you for all
They say I drink whiskey, my money is my own
And them that don't like me can leave me alone

Baby, oh baby, I've told you before
You make me a pallet, I'll lay on the floor

кстати я сегодня плавала 20 минут - вода по прежнему бодрящая!!

It's one of those songs with several sets of lyrics. This is listed as Tex Ritter's version."Song of the Gringo", 1936

Jack o' Diamonds, Jack o' Diamonds and I know you of old
You've robbed my poor pockets of silver and gold
It's a whiskey, you villain, you've been my downfall
You've kicked me, you've cuffed me, but I love you for all
It's a whiskey, rye whiskey, rye whiskey I cry
If I don't get rye whiskey, well, I think I will die
I'll eat when I'm hungry, I'll drink when I'm dry
If the hard times don't kill me, I'll lay down and die
I'll tune up my fiddle and I 'll rosin my bow
I'll make myself welcome, wherever I go
Rye whiskey, rye whiskey, rye whiskey I cry
If a tree don't fall on me, I'll live till I die
Beefsteak when I'm hungry red liquor when I'm dry
Greenbacks when I'm hard up and religion when I die
They say I drink whiskey, my money's my own
All them that don't like me, can leave me alone

Rye whiskey, rye whiskey, rye whiskey I cry
If a tree don't fall on me, I'll live till I die
Sometimes I drink whiskey, sometimes I drink rum
Sometimes I drink brandy, at other times none
But if I get boozey, my whiskey's my own
And them that don't like me, can leave me alone
Rye whiskey, rye whiskey, rye whiskey I cry
If a tree don't fall on me, I'll live till I die
If the ocean was whiskey and I was a duck
I'd dive to the bottom to get one sweet suck
But the ocean ain't whiskey and I ain't a duck
So we'll round up the cattle and then we'll get drunk
Rye whiskey, rye whiskey, rye whiskey I cry
If the whiskey don't kill me, I'll live till I die
My foot's in my stirrup, my bridle's in my hand
I'm leaving sweet Lillie, the fairest in the land
Her parents don't like me, they say I'm too poor
They say I'm unworthy to enter her door
It's a whiskey, rye whiskey, rye whiskey I cry
If I don't get rye whiskey, well, I think I will die
Sweet milk when I'm hungry, rye whiskey when I'm dry
If a tree don't fall on me, I'll live till I die
I'll buy my own whiskey, I'll make my own stew
If I get drunk, madam, it's nothing to you

Rye whiskey, rye whiskey, rye whiskey I cry
If a tree don't fall on me, I'll live till I die
I'll drink my own whiskey, I'll drink my own wine
Some ten thousand bottles I've killed in my time
I've no wife to quarrel, no babies to bawl
The best way of living is no wife at all
Rye whiskey, rye whiskey, rye whiskey I cry
If a tree don't fall on me, I'll live till I die
Way up on Clinch Mountain I wander alone
I'm as drunk as the devil, oh, let me alone
You may boast of your knowledge an' brag of your sense
'Twill all be forgotten a hundred years hence
Rye whiskey, rye whiskey, you're no friend to me
You killed my poor daddy, God damn you, try me

про песню - Jack of Diamonds (song) From Wikipedia
Jack of Diamonds (a.k.a. Jack o' Diamonds and Jack of Diamonds (Is a Hard Card to Play)) is a traditional folk song. It is a Texas gambling song that was popularized by Blind Lemon Jefferson. It was sung by railroad men who had lost money playing Coon can. At least twelve white artists recorded the tune before World War II. The song has been recorded under various titles such as "A Corn Licker Still in Georgia" (Riley Puckett) and "Rye Whiskey" (Tex Ritter).

The song is related to "Drunkard's Hiccoughs", "Johnnie Armstrong", "Todlen Hame", "Bacach", "Robi Donadh Gorrach", "The Wagoner's Lad", "Clinch Mountain", "The Cuckoo", "Rye Whiskey", "Saints Bound for Heaven", "Separation", and "John Adkins' Farewell." This family of tunes originally comes from the British Isles, though is most well known in North America. The lyrics may originate in the American Civil War song "The Rebel Soldier" and the melody from the Scottish song "Robie Donadh Gorrach", known by Nathaniel Gow as "An Old Highland Song".
