Homemade Shine

Laney Jones

Compositor: Laney Jones

Those boys in the boonies
Know how to woo me
When they give me some
Of that ol’ Moon shine
The stuff that we’re drinkin’
What the hell are we thinkin’
Oh, but give me some homemade shine
And I’ll be fine

So pass that ol’ jug around
It’s that best bar outside of town
It’ll get you drunk and it’ll only cost a dime
Bootleggers and baptists too
Can’t get enough of this here brew
So take a swig and we’ll have a grand ol’ time

Oh, put that copper kettle on
Fillin’ jugs and singin’ songs
Down by the river
In the pale moonlight
I support my local stiller
He says boys go fill her
Up with homemade whiskey
When the Moon is bright

So pass that ol’ jug around
It’s that best bar outside of town
It’ll get you drunk and it’ll only cost a dime
Bootleggers and baptists too
Can’t get enough of this here brew
So take a swig and we’ll have a grand ol’ time

Hickory, hickory ash and oak
Straight up hooch, don’t chase with coke
I like it straight and I like strong
I down my corn liquor
It gets me drunk much quicker
Than anything else that comes along

An’ you can give me Jack and you can give me Jim
But I don’t really care for them
Rum and wine just seem like such a crime
When I see the smoke blowin’
I know I best get goin’ and
Get me some of that ol’ moonshine

So pass that ol’ jug around
It’s that best bar outside of town
It’ll get you drunk and it’ll only cost a dime
Bootleggers and baptists too
Can’t get enough of this here brew
So take a swig and we’ll have a grand ol’ time
