From the recording Beer from Vermont
Lyrics
Beer From Vermont – Bridget Ahrens/Alana Shaw AKA Waves of Adrenaline
Oh give me a home
Where there’s hops, and there’s foam
Where the yeast and the sugars do play
You can keep all the beer
That is tasteless and clear
Give me a Vermont IPA!
In this brave little state
We’re all “do it yourself”
We like having fun
More than building up wealth
We bake our own bread
And we grow our own corn
So you can imagine
How craft beer was born!
[Chorus]
Have a Topper that’s heady
We’re 14th Star steady
You can wish for whatever you want
So put down your Buds
Make craft beer your suds
And drink up the beer from Vermont.
It’s hard to decide
in Vermont what to drink
If you have too much –
well, you’ll float or you’ll sink
The choices will drive you
right out to the brink
But I bet you be “hoppy”
I say with a wink
[Chorus]
If you’re on the right track
I’d go for the Switchback
If you like to ski
You might try a Long Trail
If you are a hop-head
I’d try the Hill Farmstead
When the Lake Monsters lose
It’s Profanity Ale
[Chorus]
Discouraging words
Are not heard around here
We just roll up our sleeves
And start brewing beer
I’ve got some bottles
If you’ve got the grains
When there’s beer on the stove
Then there’s foam on the range
Have a Topper that’s heady
We’re 14th Star steady
You can wish for whatever you want
So put down your Buds
Make craft beer your suds
And drink up the beer from Vermont.
[Outro…]
So put down your Buds
Make craft beer your suds
And drink up the beer from Vermont.
