I especially like this post, it makes so much sense to me
A Whiskey Picnic
Ain’t no grapes and ripped bread, we sip whiskey instead
We drink and dream of casks and caskets
On a whiskey picnic you don’t need no basket
Two shots for the road lightens the load
But five or six And you’re really fixed
On highways and byways we walk the train tracks
And forget the way back
Our voices rattle and chain down whiskey lane
As we sing a song it carries us along
Our whiskey picnic ho-down Feels warm on the way down
That corn wine flow don’t lay us low
Whiskey picnics don’t end when you got bottled friends
Our throats washed in gold, it never gets old
On outdoor dinners we’ll fill our jiggers
And toast God’s barrels, sing whiskey carols
Whet our lips and kiss with candor when our blood’s half amber
We forget to speak and fall asleep
Lay our glasses down on leaf and ground
Whiskey picnic roll-around
We wake for swigs, hair full of twigs
Slurred sweet nothings that pluck our heartstrings
My bottle’s yours, we break only for pours
We’re star-crossed drunks, we raise our cups
To getting’ frisky: Cheers, darlin’, here’s to whiskey.

I can’t stop listening to this song… the lyrics are a poem by Gillian South Goodman, who I just met this weekend when she stayed with me over the holiday. A sweet n sour kind of Georgia Peach with a badass twist if I ever met one.
