F#m C#m
I've been a moonshiner
F#m C#m
For seventeen long years
F#m C#m
I spend all my money on whiskey and beer
F#m C#m
I go to some hollow
F#m C#m
And set up my holy, holy still
F#m C#m
If drinking do not kill me
F#m C#m
Then I don't know what will
F#m C#m
I go to some bar room
F#m C#m
And drink with my friends
F#m C#m
See if women and men would come to follow
F#m C#m
To see what I might spend
F#m C#m
God bless them handsome men
F#m C#m
I wish they was mine
F#m C#m
Their breath is as sweet as
F#m C#m
The dew on the holy, holy vine
F#m
You're already in hell
C#m
You're already in hell
F#m C#m
I wish we could go to hell
F#m C#m
When the bottle gets empty,
F#m C#m
Then life ain't worth the drown
