The Moonshiner


            G                     C
I've been a moonshiner for many a year
  D                                 G
I spent all my money on whiskey and beer
               G                     C
I'll go to some hollow and set up my still
     D                                  G
I'll make you a gallon for a two-dollar bill
Chorus:
		I'm a rambler, I'm a gambler, I'm a long way from home
		If you don't like me, just leave me alone
		I eat when I'm hungry, I drink when I'm dry
		And if moonshine don't kill me I'll live till I die

Verse 2:
	I'll go to some hollow in this count-ar-y
		Ten gallons of wash - I can go on a spree
		No woman to follow, the world is all mine
		I love none so well as I love the moonshine

Chorus:

Verse 3:
	Moonshine, dear moonshine, oh, how I love thee
		You killed my poor father, but dare you try me
		Bless all the moonshiners and bless the moonshine
		Its breath smells as sweet as the dew on the vine
