I've been a moonshiner
for seventeen long years.
I've spent all my money
on whiskey and beer.
I go to some barroom
and set up my still
and if whiskey don't kill me
I don't know what will.
I go to some hollow
and drink with my friends
where that women won't follow
and see what I spend.
God bless those pretty women.
I wish they was mine.
Their breath is as sweet as
the dew on the vine.
Let me eat when I'm hungry.
Whiskey when I'm dry.
Green grass when I'm hard up.
Religion when I die.
The whole world is a bottle
and life is a dram.
When that bottle gets empty,
well it ain't worth a damn.
I've been a moonshiner
for seventeen long years.
I've spent all my money
on whiskey and beer.
I go to some barroom
and set up my still
and if whiskey don't kill me
I don't know what will.
