I've been a moonshiner,
For seventeen long years,
And I've spent all my money,
On whiskey and beer,
I go to some hollow,
And I sit at my still,
And if whiskey don't kill me,
Then I don't know what will.

I go to some bar room,
And I drink with my friends,
Where the women can't follow,
And see what I spend,
God, bless them pretty women,
I wish they was mine,
Their breath is as sweet as,
The dew on the vine.

Let me eat when I'm hungry,
Let me drink when I'm dry,
Give me a dollar when I'm hard up,
Religion when I die,
The whole world's a bottle,
And life's but a dram,
When the bottle gets empty,
I know it ain't worth a damn.

I've been a moonshiner,
For seventeen long years,
And I've spent all my money,
On whiskey and beer,
I go to some hollow,
And I sit at my still,
And if whiskey don't kill me,
Then nothing will.
