Moonshine Man

[Verse 1]
Well, it's been 10 long years since I left my home
And found solace in the mountains all alone
Yeah, I feel better when I'm sitting all alone
But the night's getting cold in my old homestead
I got roosters that will keep me well and fed
Oh, I got roosters that will keep me well and fed

[Chorus]
But you left me with nothing but a moonshine still
Now praying she comes home before I die alone
Well if I die it's on this hill, flat picking for as long as I can
'Til I die a moonshine man

[Verse 2]
Hang the food up high above my snare
Been praying that it keeps away the bears
Lord, I'm praying that it keeps away the bears
I got no guitar and a moonshine still
And they both can help to cure me when I'm ill
Lord, they both can help to cure me when I'm ill

[Chorus]
But you left me with nothing but a moonshine still
Now praying she comes home before I die alone
But if I die it's on this hill, flat picking for as long as I can
'Til I die a moonshine man

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Outro]
Well, the moonshine man, he's tough as nails
Some say it's still him playing from the hills
Oh, Lord, at night's you can hear his guitar wail
