Copper Kettle

Get you a copper kettle
 Get you a copper coil
 Cover with new-made corn mash
 And never more you'll toil
 You just lay there by the juniper
 While the moon is bright
 Watch them jugs a-fillin'
 In the pale moonlight
 My daddy, he made whiskey
 My granddaddy did too
 We ain't paid no whiskey tax
 Since seventeen ninety-two
 We just lay there by the juniper
 While the moon is bright
 Watch them jugs a-fillin'
 In the pale moonlight
 Build your fire with hickory
 Hickory and ash and oak
 Don't use no green or rotten wood
 They'll get you by the smoke
 While you lay there by the juniper
 While the moon is bright
 Watch them jugs a-fillin'
 In the pale moonlight
 Get you a copper kettle
 Get you a copper coil
 Cover with new-made corn mash
 And never more you'll toil
 You just lay there, by the juniper
 While the moon is bright
 Watch them jugs a-fillin'
 In the pale moonlight
 In the pale moonlight
