Lyrics
There's a rumor
Getting out of Missouri
Started as a whisper
Back behind the hills
Passed across a bar top
Like a good secret will
Somebody took a taste
Somebody told a friend
Now that little secret
Is getting out again
They say it's young
But close your eyes
Take one slow pull
And tell me they're right
Something's moving
Through those Ozark hills
Word gets around
When the whiskey's this good
There's a rumor
Getting out of Missouri
Remember that name
Young by the calendar
Old in the glass
Smooth on the front
Little fire in the back
Two years down
But you'd never know
There's an old soul
In that young whiskey glow
Yeah there's a secret
Getting out of Missouri
Now you know
No hundred-year story
No grandfather's ghost
No dusty old label
Making some big boast
Just make it right
Let the whiskey speak
Quality over quantity
Every day of the week
Then somebody poured it
For folks keeping score
They gave that young whiskey
Silver to take home
Two years old
Standing mighty tall
Maybe age ain't
Everything after all
There's a rumor
Getting out of Missouri
GBR17
Remember that name
Young by the calendar
Old in the glass
Smooth on the front
Little fire in the back
From the Ozark hills
The word's getting around
There's a new whiskey
Coming out of this town
Yeah the secret
Is getting out of Missouri
Now you know
Two years
That's what the label says
Two years
That's what the calendar says
But pour it
Smell it
Taste it
Now tell me
How old does it taste
Maybe it's the Ozarks
Maybe it's the grain
Maybe it's the patience
Maybe we got lucky
We didn't
Blood
Sweat
Time
Do it right
Put your name on the bottle
Then put it on the line
There's a rumor
Getting out of Missouri
GBR17
Remember that name
Young by the calendar
Old in the glass
Pour you one slow
And let the whiskey answer that
From Table Rock nights
To the other side of town
From one damn barstool
Till the word gets around
There's a secret
Coming out of Missouri
And it ain't much
Of a secret anymore
GBR17
Black Sea Shines
Young whiskey
Old soul
Ozark made
Missouri knows
Now the rest of the world
Is gonna know
GBR17
