Moonshiner

[Verse 1]

Oh, I'm a moonshiner

For seventeen long years

And I spent all my money

On whiskey and beer

And I go to some hollow

And set up my still

If whiskey don't kill me

Lord, I don't know what will

[Verse 2]

And I go to some barroom

To drink with my friends

Where the women, they can't follow

To see what I spend

God bless them pretty women

I wish they was mine

With breath as sweet as

The dew on the vine

[Verse 3]

Let me eat when I'm hungry

Let me drink when I'm dry

Two dollars when I'm hard up

Religion when I die

The whole world is a bottle

And life is but a dram

When the bottle gets empty

Lord, it sure ain't worth a damn
