Moonshine Rum, whiskey, and rye We give the top and tail to the mountain trail But we pour that heart in a jar, thats right some moonshine Little by little, good time Burns like hell, but tastes like heaven verse 1 N.C. Get those bottles on the road young man Oh I am a bootlegger With a truck load full of moonshine And my daddy tried to quell my crimes But I just couldn't let it go My heart was set on the money And the open road in the moonlight Sooner or later I'll be meeting then, but till then Moonshine Rum, whiskey, and rye We give the top and tail to the mountain trail But we pour that heart in a jar, thats right some moonshine Little by little, good time Burns like hell, but tastes like heaven verse 2 I found myself a lover She swore she'd never leave me I found it hard to believe it But it turned out to be the truth But my heart was full of trouble And it always gathered 'round me Sooner or later well be meeting then, till then Moonshine Rum, whiskey, and rye We give the top tand tail to the mountain trail But we pour that heart in a jar, thats right some moonshine Little by little, good time Burns like hell, but tastes like heaven Bridge I got my blood to the boil point Chasing the horizon Before the sun starts rising and the moonshine getting low And I brewed us up a batch boy Get your howl at the moonlight Four till the morning, better hold on tight N.C. Sleep all day cause we live by night Moonshine Rum, whiskey, and rye We give the top and tail to the mountain trail But we pour that heart in a jar, thats right some moonshine Little by little, good time Burns like hell, but tastes like heaven
