Copper Kettle Songtext
von The A's

Get you a copper kettle
Get you a copper coil
Lay with new made corn mash
Never more you′ll toil

You just lay there by the juniper
While the moon is bright
Watch them jugs a-filling
By the pale moonlight
By the pale moonlight

Get you a fire of hickory
Hickory, ash and oak
Don't use no green or rotten wood
They′ll catch you by the smoke


You just lay there by the juniper
While the moon is bright
Watch them jugs a-filling
By the pale moonlight
By the pale moonlight

Mama, she made whiskey
Granddad, he did too
We ain't paid no whiskey tax
Since 1792

You just lay there by the juniper
While the moon is bright
Watch them jugs a-filling
By the pale moonlight
By the pale moonlight
