Humours of Whiskey

Come guess me this riddle: what beats pipes and fiddle? What's hotter than mustard and milder than cream? What best wets your whistle? What's clearer than crystal? What's sweeter than honey and stronger than steam? What will make the dumb talk? What will make the lame walk? The elixir of life and philospher's stone And what helped Mr. Brunel to dig the Thames Tunnel? Wasn't it whiskey from ould Inishowen? So stick to the cratur' the best thing in nature For drowning your sorrows and raising your joys Oh lord, it's no wonder, if lightning and thunder Was made from the plunder of whiskey me boys https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rQ-UItNBoMw https://genius.com/Marc-gunn-the-humours-of-whiskey-lyrics
