From: Coyote Breath Well, yes Vernon Dalhart and there is a "parody" which is a moonshining song; I am sure that those lawmen don't like me They have drove me away from my still And of course I had to leave there running Through the wildwood and over the hill. Chorus: And its meet me tonight old pal meet me Meet me out in the moon light alone For I have ten gallons of good whiskey Must be sold by the light of the moon Chorus: Well I know that the lawmen don't love me They have drove me from my cabin door If I had my time to do over I would still ten thousand gallons or more. Chorus: If I knew when those lawmen were coming I could be standing in my cabin door With my pockets full of steel jackets And my Colt ivory handled forty-four. Chorus |
