Moonshiner Lyrics

I've been a moonshiner
For seventeen long years
And I spent all my money
On whiskey and beerAnd I go to some hollow
And set up my still
If whiskey don't kill me
Lord, I don't know what willAnd I go to some bar room
To drink with my friends
Where the women they can't follow
To see what I spendGod bless them pretty women
I wish there was mine
With breath as sweet as
The dew on the vineLet me eat when I'm hungry
Let me drink when I'm dry
Two dollars when I'm hard up
Religion when I dieThe whole world is a bottle
And life is but a dram
When the bottle gets empty

Lord, it sure ain't worth a damn

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Uncle Tupelo

Uncle Tupelo was an alternative country music group from Belleville, Illinois, active between 1987 and 1994. Jay Farrar, Jeff Tweedy, and Mike Heidorn formed the band after the lead singer of their previous band, The Primitives, left to attend college. The trio recorded three albums for Rockville Records, before signing with Sire Records and expanding to a five-piece. Shortly after the release of the band's major label debut album Anodyne, Farrar announced his decision to leave the band due to a soured relationship with his co-songwriter Tweedy.
