Uncle Tupelo
moonshiner
Select language to translate this lyric
I am a moonshiner for seventeen long years
An' I spent all my money on whiskey and beer
An' I go to some hollow and set up my still
If whiskey don't kill me, Lord I don't know what will
An' I go to some barroom to drink with my friends
Where the women they can't follow to see what I spend
God bless them pretty women, I wish they was mine
With breath as sweet as the dew on the vine
Let me eat when I am 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
