Lyrics Moonshiners - Goodnight, Texas

Moonshiners

Where were you when the saw mill burned?
I was out fighting with my grandpa’s gun
they can follow me as best they can
I can run quicker when there is no sun
Shine on
Shine on
Shine on
Shine on
Yeah, the government of this state
ain’t the only way that the sherrif gets payed
you can try to hide who you are
but they’ll see straight through your charade
Shine on
Shine on
Shine on
Shine on
Where do the hound dogs eat
when the people are thrilled?
Where does the smoke from your lungs go
once you lay still?
What do the cockroaches do
no one 'round
They live like the moonshiners
Half underground
Instrumental
Yes, it was me that burned it down
Confound everyone, make it well known
That after 33 years of this
I’ve got a government of my own
Shine on
Shine on
Shine on
Shine on
Where do the hound dogs eat
When the people are thrilled?
Where does the smoke from your lungs go
Once you lay still?
What do the cockroaches do
When no one’s 'round?
They live like the moonshiners
Half underground
