Bootlegging Blues

歌詞

Since corn liquor came in style, that's plenty money to be made Just get a job at one of these stills and you surely will be paid I'll tell you, it's a mighty risk to run and a mighty chance to take To spend your money for the corn that the bootleggers make The bootleggin' man got his bottle in his hand And all he needs is a little more speed So he can out-run the Revenue man When the bootlegger goes to his still, get ready to make his stuff He's got his concentrated lye, cocaine and his snuff Spoken: He'll fix you up a drink, just won't quit! It'll make you fight a circle saw Make you slap the ladies down And make you pick a fight with your Pa The bootleggin' man got his bottle in his hand And all he needs is a little more speed So he can out-run the Revenue man I went home the other night, I swore I wouldn't drink no more Until saloons come back with bottled in bond and the days of long ago But I see that will never be, so I just got drunk again I haven't nothin', as long as corn liquor lasts 'til I got no money to spend The bootleggin' man got his bottle in his hand And all he needs is a little more speed So he can out-run the Revenue man The bootleggin' man got his bottle in his hand And all he needs is a little more speed So he can out-run the Revenue man
