The Moonshiner Lyrics

 MUSIC: D. Schoufs
 LYRICS: D. Schoovaerts/U. Balfe


 No dimes in your pocket
 No bills in your wallet
 No cash in the bank
 Ain't no good at all

 Honey you're not wise
 You don't realise
 People talk you know
 Guess what I've been told
 When you come home late
 That beat look on your face
 Don't tell me it's because
 You're working night and day
 I'm not blind
 I got eyes you see
 You're a mean moonshiner

 You've been seen down at Joe's
 Spending all of my dough
 Splashing bourbon and rye

 Playing randy and dandy, the game stakes are high

 Honey you're a lie
 Just a no good guy
 Phoney Romeo
 In a late late show
 When I took you home
 To mama she said
 This guy looks like
 He's got a hole in his head
 Lord protect us from evil she cried
 He's a mean moonshiner

 Honey don't you grieve
 When I take my leave
 I ain't gonna cry
 For my last goodbye
 I'm gonna take that door
 Don't care what you say
 You never did say much anyway
 I care no longer
 For the company
 Of a mean moonshiner
