Who Threw the Whiskey In the Well Lyrics


Who threw the whiskey in the well
Who threw the whiskey in the well
They were feeling mighty fine
Higher than your divine
We said, who threw the whiskey in the wellWho threw the whiskey in the well
Who threw the whiskey in the well
They were all feeling good
They were happy doing the best they could
Said, who threw the whiskey in the wellYeah, the brown got the whiskey in the well
Yeah, the brown got the whiskey in the well
They were all gathered around
And one of the sisters did tell
Said, who threw the whiskey in the wellNow the reverend was standing looking at the door
With a bottle of whiskey and a glass in his hand
He said come on in sister and brothers and gather too
'Cause I'm the priest to sermon and I'ma tell you what to doWe said, who threw the whiskey in the well
Who threw the whiskey in the well
They were feeling mighty fine

Higher than your divine
We said, who threw the whiskey in the wellAmen, Amen
Amen, Hallelujah
Amen, Amen
Hallelujah

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
