Moonshiner Songtext
von Kelcy Mae
Moonshiner Songtext
I am a moonshiner
Seventeen long years
And I spend all my money
On whiskey and beer
And I go to some hollow
And set my still
If whiskey don′t kill me
Lord, I don't know what will
Well, I go to some bar room
To drink with my friends
Where the women cannot follow
To see what I spend
Well, God bless them pretty women
I wish they was mine
With breath as sweet as
The dew on the vine
Let me eat when I am hungry
Let me drink when I′m dry
Two dollars when I am hard up
And religion when I die
Well, the whole world is a bottle
And life is but a dram
And when the bottle, it gets empty
Well, life ain't the dam
Seventeen long years
And I spend all my money
On whiskey and beer
And I go to some hollow
And set my still
If whiskey don′t kill me
Lord, I don't know what will
Well, I go to some bar room
To drink with my friends
Where the women cannot follow
To see what I spend
Well, God bless them pretty women
I wish they was mine
With breath as sweet as
The dew on the vine
Let me eat when I am hungry
Let me drink when I′m dry
Two dollars when I am hard up
And religion when I die
Well, the whole world is a bottle
And life is but a dram
And when the bottle, it gets empty
Well, life ain't the dam
