The Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem - The Moonshiner Lyrics

Lyrics The Moonshiner - Tommy Makem , The Clancy Brothers



I'm a rambler, I'm a gambler,
I'm a long ways from home
And if you don't like me
Well leave me alone
I'll eat when I'm hungry
I'll drink when I'm dry
And a moonshine don't kill me
I'll live till I die
I've been a moonshiner for many a year
I've spent all me money on whiskey and beer
I'll go to some hollow, I'll set up my still
And I'll make you a gallon for a ten shilling bill
I'm a rambler, I'm a gambler,
I'm a long ways from home
And if you don't like me
Well leave me alone
I'll eat when I'm hungry
I'll drink when I'm dry
And a moonshine don't kill me
I'll live till I die
I'll go to some hollow in this country
Ten gallons of wash I can go on a spree
No woman to follow, the world is all mine
I love none so well as I love the moonshine
I'm a rambler, I'm a gambler,
I'm a long ways from home
And if you don't like me
Well leave me alone
I'll eat when I'm hungry
I'll drink when I'm dry
And a moonshine don't kill me
I'll live till I die
Oh moonshine, dear moonshine
Oh how I love thee
You killed me old father but dare you try me
Now bless all moonshiners and bless all moonshine
Their breath smells as sweet as the dew on the vine
I'm a rambler, I'm a gambler,
I'm a long ways from home
And if you don't like me
Well leave me alone
I'll eat when I'm hungry
I'll drink when I'm dry
And a moonshine don't kill me
I'll live till I die
