Copper Kettle (Without Overdubs) [Self Portrait] Lyrics

This is one of our old favourites

Get you
Get you a copper kettle
Get you a copper coil
Fill it with new made corn mash
And never more you'll toil
We'll just lay there by the juniper
While the moon is bright
Watch them jugs a-filling
In the pale moonlight

Build you a fire with hickory
Hickory, ash and oak
Don't use no green or rotten wood
They'll get you by the smoke
We'll just lay there by the juniper
While the moon is bright
Watch them jugs a-filling
In the pale moonlight

My daddy he made whiskey
My granddaddy he did too
We ain't paid no whiskey tax
Since 1792
We'll just lay there by the juniper
While the moon is bright
Watch them jugs a-filling
In the pale moonlight
In the pale moonlight
