MOONSHINER
(lines in red were not sung live at ODC)
(Trad./Roscoe Holcomb / Arr. by Jeff Kazor and Lisa Berman)
last verse lyrics pulled from "Darling Corey" or "Dig a Hole in the Meadow"
I have been a Moonshiner
ever since that I’ve been born.
I have drunk up all of my money
and stilled up all of my corn.
I’ll go up some dark hollow
put up my moonshine still.
Sit, I’ll make you one gallon
for a five dollar bill.
I’ll go up some dark hollow
and get you some booze.
If the revenuers don’t get me,
you know money will I lose.
Call on all you moonshiners,
and stand all in a row,
You look so sad and lonesome,
you’re lonesome, yes, I know.
(I said) Wake up my darling,
and go get me my gun,
I ain’t gonna make trouble,
but I’ll die before I run.
God bless the pretty women,
you know I wish they all were mine,
Their breath smells so sweetly,
like good ol’ moonshine.
