The Moonshiner |
| I’m a rambler, I’m a gambler |
| I’m a long way from home |
| And if you don’t like me |
| Well, leave me alone |
| I’ll eat when I’m hungry |
| I’ll drink when I’m dry |
| And if moonshine don’t kill me |
| I’ll live til I die |
| I’ve been a moonshiner for many a year |
| I’ve spent all me money on whiskey and beer |
| I’ll go to some hollow, I’ll set up my still |
| And I’ll make you a gallon for a ten shilling bill |
| I’ll go to some hollow in this count-er-y |
| Ten gallons of wash I can go on a spree |
| No women to follow, the world is all mine |
| I love none so well as I love the moonshine |
| Oh, moonshine, dear moonshine, oh, how I love thee |
| You killed me old father, but ah you try me |
| Now bless all moonshiners and bless all moonshine |
| Their breath smells as sweet as the dew on the vine |
