Moonshiner by Moriarty Lyrics
I've been a moonshiner
For many long years
And I've spent all my money
On whiskey and on beers
I go to some hollow
And sit at my still
And if whiskey don't kill me
Then I don't know what will
Oh, moonshine, dear moonshine
How I love thee
You killed my old father
Now you try me
God bless the moonshiners
And bless the moonshine
Their taste is as sweet as
The dew on the vine
I'm a rambler, I'm a gambler
I'm a long ways from home
And if you don't like me
Then leave me all alone
I'll eat when I'm hungry
And drink when I'm dry
And if a tree don't fall on me
Well I'll live til I die
Moonshine, moonshine, moonshine
How I love thee
You killed my old father
And now you try me
God bless the pretty women
I wish they were mine
Their lips are as sweet as
The dew on the vine
For many long years
And I've spent all my money
On whiskey and on beers
I go to some hollow
And sit at my still
And if whiskey don't kill me
Then I don't know what will
Oh, moonshine, dear moonshine
How I love thee
You killed my old father
Now you try me
God bless the moonshiners
And bless the moonshine
Their taste is as sweet as
The dew on the vine
I'm a rambler, I'm a gambler
I'm a long ways from home
And if you don't like me
Then leave me all alone
I'll eat when I'm hungry
And drink when I'm dry
And if a tree don't fall on me
Well I'll live til I die
Moonshine, moonshine, moonshine
How I love thee
You killed my old father
And now you try me
God bless the pretty women
I wish they were mine
Their lips are as sweet as
The dew on the vine
