The song "OK Whiskey" by Jason Eady tells the story of a person on a long drive through Oklahoma City. They stop at a bar and begin drinking, feeling unsatisfied with the beer options available. They then realize that Oklahoma is known for its whiskey and decide to give it a try. The lyrics highlight the preference for whiskey over beer, emphasizing that the whiskey in Oklahoma is superior to the weaker 3.2% beer (3.2% alcohol by weight). The protagonist indulges in drinking whiskey to make up for lost time and enjoys it more than the beer they initially settled for. However, the song takes a turn when the protagonist's excessive drinking leads to reckless behavior and getting arrested. This experience serves as a lesson that they should not mess around with whiskey in Oklahoma City. Overall, the song explores the theme of indulgence, the search for satisfaction, and the consequences of excessive behavior. It portrays whiskey as a symbol of both enjoyment and trouble, highlighting the importance of moderation and responsibility.
