| Well I was sent to a place
|
| Down in North Carolina
|
| To check up on a moonshine still
|
| But when I got there to my surprise
|
| I could see a little light on the hill
|
| Well the fire was a-glowin'
|
| Already I was know
|
| That I was really hot on the track
|
| But the NVC said it couldn’t be me
|
| Yeah I’ll be the one to bring it back
|
| Cause I’m a revenue man, yes a revenue man
|
| I got a badge on my pocket and a gun on my hip
|
| I find moonshiners and I never make a slip
|
| I’m a revenue man, I’ll get ‘em if I can
|
| Well the moon was shinin' tonight
|
| When I looked down the river
|
| I noticed on the side of the hill
|
| I could see a red light
|
| Glowin' really bright
|
| I knew it had to be a still
|
| Yeah people down the road
|
| Said it wasn’t far
|
| But you oughta know someone
|
| 'Cause when the moonshiners knew
|
| That I carry a star
|
| I bet my bottom dollar
|
| That I’ll have ‘em on the run
|
| 'Cause I’m a revenue man, yes a revenue man
|
| I got a badge on my pocket and a gun on my hip
|
| I find moonshiners and I never make a slip
|
| I’m a revenue man, I’ll get ‘em if I can
