Lyrics

I've been a moonshiner for 17 long years
 I've spent all my money on whiskey and beer
 I'll go to some hollow and set up my still
 And I'll sell you a gallon for a ten dollar bill
 ♪
 Then I go to some barroom and drink with my friends
 Where the women can't follow and see what I spend
 God bless them pretty women, I wish one was mine
 Because her breath is as sweet as the dew on the vine
 ♪
 Give me food when I'm hungry, give me drink when I'm dry
 A dollar when I'm hard up, religion when I die
 Only then if this whole world's a bottle then life's but a dram
 When the bottle gets empty it sure ain't worth a damn
 ♪
 I've been a moonshiner for 17 long years
 I've spent all my money on whiskey and beer
 I'll go to some hollow and set up my still
 And if the whiskey don't kill me, I don't know what will
