I've been a moonshiner
For seventeen long years
And I spent all my money
On whiskey and beer
And I go to some hollow
And set up my still
If whiskey don't kill me
Lord, I don't know what will
ย
And I go to some bar room
To drink with my friends
Where the women they can't follow
To see what I spend
God bless them pretty women
I wish there was mine
With breath as sweet as
The dew on the vine
ย
Let me eat when I'm hungry
Let me drink when I'm dry
Two dollars when I'm hard up
Religion when I die
The whole world is a bottle
And life is but a dram
When the bottle gets empty
Lord, it sure ain't worth a damn
