BOB DYLAN - Moonshiner lyrics

rate me

I've been a moonshiner

For seventeen long years

I spent all my money on whiskey and beer

I go to some hollow

And set up my still

If whiskey don't kill me

Then I don't know what will

I go to some bar room

And drink with my friends

If women came to follow

And see what I spend

God bless them pretty women

I wish they was mine

They're breath is as sweet as

The dew on vine

Let me eat when I'm hungry

Let me drink when I'm dry

A dollar when I am hard up

Religion when I die

The whole world is a bottle

And life is but a dram

When the bottle gets empty

It sure ain't worth a dime
