"Whiskey In a Barrel" is the first track to be released from The Muchmores' upcoming record "Leave This Circus," which will be out Fall 2017

lyrics

You looked me over and said "You're a young man; it's time you aged like whiskey in a barrel"

You looked me over and said "You're an old man; it's time you made something of yourself"

I looked myself in the mirror and said "You're an old man; you've got hate in your heart that you know like a lover. Lock yourself tight in a blanket to keep your cold. You've mastered the call of the birds to keep them close"

But the urgency of now won't make me break into a run!

I'll name this river now like I found it when I was alone

And I'll just walk, I'll just walk

I've been around myself a bit too long, kept my own counsel in an empty palace

Run off the jesters and queens who made my kingdom, the ultimatum laid that I can't keep

But the urgency of now won't make me break into a run! I'll name this river now like I found it when I was alone

And I'll just walk

But the urgency of now won't make me break into a run! I'll name this river now like I found it when I was alone

And I'll just walk, I'll just walk
