Words that rhyme with Liquor
For lyric work, liquor behaves as a word the lyric earns weight from by context. Sound-wise: two-syllable, vowel on the centred /ษ/, finally it spills out through a liquid consonant. It's a word everyone uses โ which is what makes it powerful in a lyric. From the rhyme-data side: perfect rhymes are thin on the ground, family rhymes come up empty, and the assonance well runs into four figures. From the lyric side, it works as a word everyone uses. The slant column is doing the heavy lifting; let it.

Why liquor rhymes the way it does
Liquor sits on the front /ษ/, transcribed /ษ/ in our engine, and flows into the next line via a liquid. In our 54,000-word dictionary the perfect-rhyme pool returns 25 matches, family rhymes 0, additive and subtractive together 17, assonance 8,512, and consonance 629. The empty family column matters less than it looks. Family rhymes are a strict-classifier construct; the songwriter's ear accepts most assonance matches in their place. What matters when you're writing: the ear forgives slants in service of meaning. If the strict rhyme is the predictable word, the assonance match will usually hit harder. Liquor is a word where the slant choice almost always reads as more thoughtful than the obvious end-rhyme.
