07 Sep 02 - 01:01 AM (#778478) Subject: John Law Burned Down the Liquor Store From: GUEST,Frisbee I'd like to do this Chris Thomas King song at an upcoming jam session. I've go this much of the lyrics (off Down from the Mountain) can anyone correct this or fill in the rest? Moonshine whiskey ought to be a crime when I start drinkin', I'm bound to lose my mind Oh brother [something] give me [something] time Now what's that smokin' yonder across the hills Looks like our secret hideaway we've had so many years John Law done come and run us away from here Chorus He burned down the liquor store He burned down the liquor store John Law burned down the liquor store John Law burned down the liquor store Without bootleg liquor, where we gonna go He turned water to whiskey, that's what the preacher say Lord I need a miracle to get me through the day Muddy water come and wash my blues away Chorus [missing verse or two] Good morning, judge, what may be my fine When the judge take my whiskey he didn't give me no time He said "Could you make me some more of your moonshine?" Chorus line breaks added by mudelf ;-) |

Until I get it from Joe, it looks like I can't get anything from the link you left. But I imagine I'll be able to before long. Frisbee |
