The Moonshiner (Live)

The Moonshiner - The Clancy Brothers/Tommy Makem

I'm a rambler I'm a gambler

I'm a long way from home and if you

Don't like me you can leave me alone

I'll eat when I'm hungry and I'll drink when

I'm dry and if moonshine don't kill me I'll live till I die

I've been a moonshiner for many a year and

I've spent all me money on whiskey

And beer I'll go to some hollow and

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 way from home and if you

Don't like me you can leave me alone

I'll eat when I'm hungry and I'll drink when

I'm dry and if moonshine don't kill me I'll live till I die

I'll go to some hollow in this country ten gallons of wash and

I'll go on a spree no woman to follow and 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 way from home and if you

Don't like me you can leave me alone

I'll eat when I'm hungry and I'll drink when

I'm dry and if moonshine don't kill me I'll live till I die

Moonshine dear moonshine oh how

I love thee you killed my poor father but dare

You kill me bless all moonshiners and bless all moonshine

For their breath smells as sweet as the dew on the vine

I'm a rambler I'm a gambler

I'm a long way from home and if you

Don't like me you can leave me alone

I'll eat when I'm hungry and I'll drink when

I'm dry and if moonshine don't kill me I'll live till I die
