Moonshine - The Silent Comedy

«Oh Anna, 's there something you need?»

She answered, «The stuff’s not cheap it’s true…

But I like it!»

My spirits can drive you to drink

That Marshall, don’t like what it makes you do

So I hide it!

Oh, in the dark of a backwoods night

I blend my mash 'till the mix is nice

Copper flash and a pilot fire

How the pressure’s buildin'!

Up Black Mountain and back off the road

Shielded lanterns, their steps were so discreet

But I spied them!

12 gauge buckshot, smoke in a ring

Rusty padlocks, they guard my boilin' wheat

Quite nicely!

Oh, how flashes light the sky

Lead shot flies and their fumes ignite

Bracelets snap and their fists do fly

I feel them flat as they hit my sides

I see their shapes in the red firelight

But I can’t stop or save it!

Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Anna!
