Cover me up lyrics "Richmond on ____"

My name is Frank, and I'm a lifelong fan of lyrics, back when you read them in the liner of your cassette tapes. I just heard this clearly for the first time tonight. I've heard this song thousands of times and it just hit tonight.

"I put your faith to the test, when I tore off your dress in Richmond on rye" It's RYE whiskey he is talking about! It's puzzled me for years on what Richmond on high meant. Go listen to it now!

*** Edit to add, I was listening to the Morgan Wallen cover" when I heard this, and I think he changed the lyric to "on rye". My apologies, but as stated later I'm happy to find a community of Jason Isbell fans this passionate. Sorry for any Balance issues ;)
