C G
Go fetch me a copper kettle
C Am
And fetch me a copper coil
C F C
And cover with new-made corn mash
Dm7 G
And never more we'll toil
[Chorus]
Am C F
And we just lay there beneath the juniper
C F
whilst the moon shines bright
G F C Dm7
Watch those jugs a-filling
G Am
In the pale moonlight
[Verse 2]
C G
Build you a fire with hickory
C Am
Hickory, ash and oak
C F C
Don't use no green or rotten wood
Dm7 G
They'll get you by the smoke
[Chorus]
Am C F
And we just lay there beneath the juniper
C F
whilst the moon shines bright
G F C Dm7
Watch those jugs a-filling
G Am
In the pale moonlight
[Verse 3]
C G
My daddy, he made whiskey
C Am
My grand-daddy, he did too
C F C
We ain't paid no whiskey tax
Dm7 G
Since seventeen ninety-two
[Chorus]
Am C F
And we just lay there beneath the juniper
C F
whilst the moon shines bright
G F C Dm7
Watch those jugs a-filling
G Am
In the pale moonlight
