Lyrics

I've been a moonshiner for many a year I've spent all me money on whiskey and beer I'll go to some hollow, and I set up me still And I'll make you a gallon for a ten shillin' bill I'm a rambler, I'm a gambler, I'm a long ways from home And if you don't like me, well, leave me alone I'll eat when I'm hungry, and I'll drink when I'm dry And if moonshine don't kill me, I'll live till I die I'll go to some hollow in this counterie Ten gallons of wash, I can go on a spree No women to follow, the world is all mine And I love none so well as I love the moonshine I'm a rambler, I'm a gambler, I'm a long ways from home And if you don't like me, well, leave me alone I'll eat when I'm hungry, and I'll drink when I'm dry And if moonshine don't kill me, I'll live till I die Oh moonshine, dear moonshine, oh how I love thee You killed me old father, but dare you try me? Now bless all moonshiners and bless all moonshine Oh, its breath smells as sweet as the dew on the vine I'm a rambler, I'm a gambler, I'm a long ways from home And if you don't like me, well, leave me alone I'll eat when I'm hungry, and I'll drink when I'm dry And if moonshine don't kill me, I'll live till I die
