Copper Kettle

[Verse 1]
Get you a copper kettle
Get you a copper coil
Fill it with new-made corn mash
Never more you'll toil

[Chorus]
Just lay there by the juniper
While the moon is bright
Watch them jugs a-fillin'
In the pale moonlight

[Verse 2]
Build you a fire of hickory
Hickory, ash, and oak
Don't use no green or rotten wood
They'll get you by the smoke

[Chorus]
Just lay there by the juniper
While the moon is bright
Watch them jugs a-fillin'
In the pale moonlight

[Verse 3]
My daddy made whiskey
My grandmama did too
They ain't paid no whiskey tax
Since seventeen ninety-two

[Chorus]
Just lay there by the juniper
While the moon is bright
Watch them jugs a-fillin'
In the pale moonlight
Watch them jugs all a-fillin'
In the pale moonlight
