Buddy Guy - Cognac Lyrics






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

(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 playin' 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
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 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)

  24. S.... B....

    Richarrds sounds duff next to these 2

  25. H.... R....

    Beck just murdered everyone.

  26. A.... B....

    put this song on in a dark room with good speakers and damn, that's amazing

  27. w.... s....

    buddy sei un grandeeeeeeeeeee

  28. j.... G....

    Extraordinario Jeff Beck

  29. E.... P....

    Congratulations to Buddy and company for their Grammy nomination for this album

    E.... P....

    Wow really , the Grammy must have got some taste. Buddy’s music will will gets the best compliment ever whether it wins a Grammy or not. It will survive time and forever be enjoyed as a Classic , as it should.

  30. F.... M....

    Wtf is that tone Jeff... Pure badass style

  31. M.... Z....

    And then there was ONE!  Long live Buddy Guy!!!

  32. K.... w....

    Beck is not right for this song

  33. J.... T....

    Let's play some blues

  34. J.... P....

    Everybody saying how it's great Buddy can hang with greats such as Beck and Richards need to realize that both of those guys were influenced by this guy. I find it impressive that they can hang with him.

    J.... P....

    James Price yes indeed influenced me and you too surely

    J.... P....

    I would bet they love playing with him. I have seen Buddy live, every bit as impressive as he is here and he seems like a hell of nice guy as well. This whole album has been added to my Buddy Guy Playlist, all good stuff on this one 👍

    J.... P....

    @7777Scion I disagree, Beck is way Past Hendrix. IMHO..

    J.... P....

    Jeff would tell you completely otherwise, friend. I know - I've stood 4 feet away from him and he told me so.

    J.... P....

    Like Clapton said about Buddy: "We owe him everything!"

  35. B.... D....

    three from here to eternity

  36. R.... R....

    I'm so glad Buddy put this fabulous album out and got a bunch of legends to play on it. Really does give me hope that The Blues will always reign no matter what :) kids of this generation need to be listening a lot more of this !

  37. M.... G....

    Beck plays and I imagine "the rocket's red glare", streams of exploding color everywhere.

  38. B.... ....

    кит обосрался

  39. A.... V....

    Thank you bro

  40. D.... F....

    Beck's distortion sounds terrible in this genre'.

  41. R.... R....

    Let's remember it's music not sports. Not the fastet, biggest, strongest wins. It's playing together. I always prefer guitar players who play and write songs, rather than neverendinig solo players who only show off how fast and flashy they are. Let Beck be the better player, Keith wrote Satisfaction.

  42. R.... K....

    Scheisse wir sind Musikert

  43. C.... H....

    Can't beat the Blues...... Happy 30th Birthday to my Beautiful Daughter Amber, Love you baby girl xxx

  59. R.... A....

    This one sounds more like bourbon and even tequila with beer that cognac jaja

  60. d.... f....

    You won't be so cool at 81 years.

  61. A.... P....

    Yes sir!! Absolutely brilliant!! You will always be my all time favorite blues musician! 💗

  62. I.... B....

    Buddy mentions Muddy often. Glad I have seen both live. Muddy opened for Eric Clapton in 81, Tuscaloosa, AL.. great show by Muddy. On his back and stomach across the stage playing guitar the whole time at his age.. I think he could play in a tornado! Poor Eric was having some issues at the time but great to see them both on the same stage. This combo of Buddy, Jeff and Kieth made me think of John Mayall's "White Boy Blues" album with Clapton, Beck and Page.

    I.... B....

    I haven't seen Buddy but I did see Muddy Waters and I was in the front row at a small college in Michigan sometime in the 70's. He was fabulous. I also think Jeff Beck's "Sugar Cane" is one of the sexiest songs I ever heard. And Keith is Keith Richards for god's sake--no other comment needed. I'm here listening to all the songs on this new album mainly 'cause of James Bay's input which I adore. And Buddy sounds superb so I do believe I will BUY THIS CD!!!!

  63. G.... H....

    Nothing but a GREAT JAM 🎸

  64. E.... A....

    nice bunch

  65. R.... W....

    YES SIR! This is the ONE AND ONLY! One a the last great bluesmen left in this world. You listen up young blood. This is THE heart of everything we listen to today.

    R.... W....

    Love you Buddy

    R.... W....

    Your right brother

  66. M.... H....

    Still as relevant as ever, Guy is and always has been saturated 100% in the blues. Great to hear Beck back in the roots and Keef chopping it up without the restraints of a band situation.

  67. T.... S....

    legendary collaboration

  68. B.... ....

    Amazing

  69. F.... 1....

    Happy Father's day to Buddy Guy ! .. I seriously enjoyed playing along with this this morning !!! ..

    I have found my new favorite jam track 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

  70. T.... W....

    Que du bonheur pour les oreilles...

  71. H.... R....

    Fabulous

  72. R.... R....

    keith and buddy , dam it don't get better than that

  73. C.... C....

    Buddy could read The labels off at old soup can , and with his voice and his guitar turn it in to gold

  74. P.... ....

    Hendrix was religiously listening to buddy in concert immersed discreetly in the crowd. That says it all

  75. D.... R....

    Three guitar legends...Keef forever!!!

  76. C.... F....

    Es extraordinario! Cada álbum que saca suena mejor!
    I'm love Buddy!!

  77. B.... ....

    Не понимаю, как можно ставить дислайк такой музыке???

  78. T.... I....

    Great!!! From Japan 28years old

  79. B.... W....

  85. C.... K....

    National. F---IN'. TREASURE. Not one step lost in over 60 years.

  86. R.... ....

    The ONLY Thing That That Makes This Worth A SHIT Is - Jeff, Without HIM, It's Just Another 12 Bar Jam..!

    By the Way - I FUCKING Love KEEF & Buddy..!
