Moonshine Man Lyrics by The Jack Wharff Band
Well, it’s been ten long years since I left my home
And found solace in the mountains all alone
Yeah, I feel better when I’m sitting all alone
But the nights get cold in my old homestead
I got roosters that will keep me well and fed
Lord, I got roosters that will keep me well and fed
But she left me when I was a moonshine still
And I pray she comes home before I die alone
But if I die it’s all that’s still
Till I pick as long as I can
Till I die of moonshine man
Hey, foot up *** above my snare
And pray that it keeps away the bears
Lord I’m afraid that he keeps playing the bass
I got an old kids heart and a moon shines still
And they both can help cure me when I ill
Lord, they both can help cure me when I’m ill
But you left me, left me, but a moon shines still
And I pray that she comes home
Before I die alone
But if I die it’s all that’s still
Till I pick as long as I can
Till I die of moonshine man
Well, the moonshine man, he’s tough as nails
Some say he’s still here playing from the hills
Or at night he’s lookin’ hear his guitar well
