Cognac

(album: The Blues Is Alive and Well - 2018)

It's smooth and it goes down really nice
Costs two hundred dollars a bottle and that's a damn good bargain price
Talking 'bout Cognac, liquid gold in every sip
Let's play us some blues while we all take a little nip

Now reefer make me mellow and whiskey make me wild
Get a couple of glasses and let's get drunk in style
I'm talking about Cognac; careful now, it sneaks up on you strong
If the late Muddy Waters was here drinking with us that bottle would be ten times gone

(Can't drink with me no more Muddy, but I... I got Keith Richards)

(How 'about you, Beck?)

(Good and smooth, good and smooth, good and smooth)
(It goes good with the blues)

(Come on, Keith, help yourself)

(Remy Martin XO)

(I'm only playing what I know)

(Come on in here, Beck)
(Stretch your neck and... XO with me)

Let met tell you 'bout this woman: when she'd get tight
Give her a double shot of Remy Martin XO, bet you'll watch it rocket rise
Talking 'bout cognac, XO Cognac that is, and it goes right to your head
(Yes it do, how well do I know)
You know it won't kill the living and it damn sure raise the dead
(Let me say that again)
You know it won't kill the living and it damn sure raise the dead
(Oh yes, it will)
(One more)
