(Jack Splittard)

There's a pine log shack in the mountains. That's where my Corey dwells.
|
She makes the finest mash liquor. What she doesn't drink she sells.
|
|
Well, the first time I seen darlin' Corey she was weavin' through the woods
|
With a kerosene lantern on her shoulder and a satchel full of goods.
|
|
Please do drop down next Monday. Please bring me a jug or five.
|
When the sun comes up on Tuesday don't figure to be alive.
|
|
Don't care if you are livin'. Don't care if you are dead.
|
If you're gonna drink my product then I'm gonna take your bread. (Frail, pardner)
|
|
Well, the last time I seen darlin' Corey, she was wand'rin' through the weeds
|
With a government man behind her. Gonna grab her for her deeds.
|
|
Wake up, wake up, darlin' Corey. What makes you sleep so sound?
|
The revenue officer's a comin', gonna tear your still house down.
