《Daddy’s Moonshine Still》歌词

[00:00:07] Folks say my daddy wasn't much of a man

[00:00:10] For disobeying the laws of the land

[00:00:13] Folks say that my daddy wasn't fit to kill

[00:00:18] Oh and I know it was true what the people said

[00:00:22] Cause we'd all've been better of dead

[00:00:24] Than to live a life of shame and strife

[00:00:27] Cause of daddy's moonshine still

[00:00:31] My mama was always sweet and kind

[00:00:34] But she grew old before her time

[00:00:37] Worryin' about the way we had to live

[00:00:41] Yeah my daddy put the wrinkles in my mama's face

[00:00:45] He drunk his share of all he made

[00:00:48] And just one more reason I grew to hate

[00:00:51] My daddy's moonshine still

[00:00:55] Daddy's moonshine still was good for nothin'

[00:00:58] But to break mama's heart

[00:00:59] And to tear our home apart

[00:01:02] Make our lives a livin' hell

[00:01:11] Them old mason jars that daddy made us wash

[00:01:14] And set them out to sun on our back porch

[00:01:17] 'Til he got ready to take 'em up on the hill

[00:01:22] And when daddy got word of the revenue

[00:01:25] He made us kids help hide his brew

[00:01:28] Made us swear that we never knew

[00:01:30] About daddy's moonshine still

[00:01:34] Yeah and two of my brothers drove across the state line

[00:01:38] Once a week with a load of moonshine

[00:01:40] And the wounds that came from that won't ever heal

[00:01:46] Cause on a moonshine run one rainy night

[00:01:49] My two brothers lost their lives

[00:01:51] And oh my god how I despise

[00:01:54] My daddy's moonshine still

[00:01:58] Daddy's moonshine still was good for nothin'

[00:02:02] But to break mama's heart

[00:02:03] And to tear our home apart

[00:02:05] Make our lives a livin' hell

[00:02:15] Well it broke mama's heart but she understood

[00:02:18] The day that I left home for good

[00:02:21] But I had to find me another way to live

[00:02:26] Well I sent mama money nearly every day

[00:02:29] And how I made it well I'd rather not say

[00:02:31] But at least it took me far away

[00:02:34] From daddy's moonshine still

[00:02:38] My bootlegging daddy was known quite well

[00:02:41] And he made our home a livin' hell

[00:02:44] And I ain't forgot it and I know that I never will

[00:02:49] My mama finally died she just gave up

[00:02:52] And daddy finally died from drinkin' that stuff

[00:02:55] And bad memories haunt the rest of us

[00:02:58] From daddy's moonshine still

[00:03:02] Daddy's moonshine still was good for nothin'

[00:03:05] But to break mama's heart

[00:03:07] And to tear our home apart

[00:03:09] Make our lives a livin' hell
