"Cognac" lyrics - BUDDY GUY

BUDDY GUY
"Cognac"

It's smooth and it goes down really nice
Costs two hundred dollars a bottle and that's a damn good bargain price
Talkin' '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 talkin' about Cognac; careful now, it sneaks up on you strong
If the late Muddy Waters was here drinkin' with us that bottle would be ten times gone

[Instrumental]

(Can't drink with me no more Muddy, but I got Keith Richards)
(How 'about you Beck?)
(Good and smooth, good and smooth)
(It goes good with the blues)
(Come on Keith, help yourself)
(I'm only playin' what I know)
(Come on in here, Beck)
(Stretch you neck and drink this XO with me)

Let met tell you 'bout this woman
When she'd get tight
Give her a double shot of Remy Martin XO
It'll launch her rocket right
Talkin' 'bout cognac (XO cognac, that is)
And it goes right to your head
(Yes it do, how well do I know)
You know it would cure the livin'
And it'll damn sure raise the dead
(Let me say that again)
You know it would cure the livin'
And it'll damn sure raise the dead
