- The Moonshiner Lyrics / with translationsI've been a moonshiner for many a year,
Spend all my money on whiskey and beer,
HI go to some hollow and set up my still,
I'll make you a gallon for a ten-shilling bill.
Chorus:
I'm a ramble, I'm a gambler, I'm a long way from home,
If you don't like me, leave me alone;
I'll eat when I'm hungry, 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 country,
Ten gallons of wash, I can go on a spree,
No woman to follow, the world is all mine,
And I love none so dear as I love the moonshine.
Chorus:
Ah moonshine, dear moonshine, how I love thee,
You killed my old father, dare you try me?
Bless all moonshiners, bless all moonsnine,
Their breath smells as sweet as the dew on the vine.
Chorus:

Bless all moonshiners, bless all moonsnine,
