Moonshiner

                                G  
 I’ve been a moonshiner
                     C

For seventeen long years
            G

I've spent all my money
    D               G

                D
On whiskey and beer
G                C
I'll go to some hollow
                D D7
And set up my still
G                       C
And I'll sell you a gallon
        D D7
For a ten dollar bill

Then I'll go to a bar room
And drink with my friends
Where the women can't follow
And see what I spend
God bless them pretty women
I wish one was mine
Because 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
If this whole world's a bottle
And 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
If the whiskey don't kill me
I don't know what will
