Select language to translate this lyric
I've been a moonshiner
For seventeen 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
And I'll go the the bar room
Where I drink with my friends
Where the women can't folllow
And see what I spend
God bless them pretty women
I wish one was mine
Cause their 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 (and only then)
If this whole world's a bottle
Then life's but a dram
When the bottle is empty
It sure ain't worth a damn
I've been a moonshiner
For seventeen 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
