Lyrics

Well I've been a moonshiner now these seventeen long years
I've spent all my money on whiskey and beer
Now I'll go to some holler and setup my still
And I'll sell you a gallon for a two dollar bill
Corn whiskey, corn whiskey I like you pretty well
You've killed all my kin folk and sent them to Hell
You've sent all my kin folk on rotgut and rye
And I guess you'll send me when I'm ready to die
Then I'll go to some grocery and drink with my friend
Where the women can follow and see what I spend
Oh God bless those pretty women how I wish they were mine
Their breath tastes as sweet the good old moonshine
Corn whiskey, corn whiskey I like you pretty well
You've killed all my kin folk and sent them to Hell
You've sent all my kin folk on rotgut and rye
And I guess you'll send me when I'm ready to die
Well it's red meat when I'm hungry and moonshine when I'm dry
Greenbacks when I'm hard-up and religion when I die
Oh the whole world's a bottle and life's but a dram
When a bottle gets empty well it ain't worth one damn
Corn whiskey, corn whiskey I like you pretty well
You've killed all my kin folk and sent them to Hell
You've sent all my kin folk on rotgut and rye
And I guess you'll send me when I'm ready to die
