I've been a moonshiner I've been a moonshiner Fui um moonshiner For seventeen long years For seventeen long years Por dezessete longos anos I spent all my money on whisky and beer I spent all my money on whisky and beer Gastei todo o meu dinheiro com whisky e cerveja I go to some hollow I go to some hollow Eu vou para um vale And set up my holy holy still And set up my holy holy still E monto minha minha santa santa destilaria If drinking do not kill me If drinking do not kill me Se beber não me mata Then I don't know what will Then I don't know what will Então não sei o que matará I go to some bar room I go to some bar room Eu vou pra um bar qualquer And drink with my friends And drink with my friends E bebo com meus amigos If women and men would come to follow If women and men would come to follow Se mulheres e homens me seguirem To see what I might spend To see what I might spend Pra ver o que posso gastar God bless them handsome men God bless them handsome men Deus os abençoe, lindos homens I wish they was mine I wish they was mine Gostaria que eles fossem meus They're breath is as sweet as They're breath is as sweet as O hálito deles é tão doce quanto The dew on the holy holy vine The dew on the holy holy vine O orvalho no santo santo vinho You're already in hell, you're already in hell You're already in hell, you're already in hell Vocês já estão no inferno, vocês já estão no inferno I wish we could go to hell I wish we could go to hell Gostaria que pudéssemos ir para o inferno When the bottle gets empty When the bottle gets empty Quando a garrafa esvazia Then life ain't worth the drown Then life ain't worth the drown A vida não vale o porre
