bootlegger's boy - old crow medicine show lyrics

Loading...

i was born and raised,
a bootlegger’s boy,
in the cherokee hills,
i applied my trade,
in mountain city,
i had me a time,
just making money,
on moonshine.

so i hauled my load,
into knoxville town,
i met me a gal,
and we knocked around,
but them knoxville girls,
can’t leave me alone,
in my suits so fine,
and my bottle of corn.

i’m going back to mountain city,
where i can make another run,
load my trunk with moonshine whisky,
i am a brave bootlegger’s son.

yeah i sold that corn,
to the circuit judge,
on the public square,
to mayor trent,
but i met with trouble,
on the tracks one night,
with a drunken man,
i commenced to fight.

yeah i fought five rounds,
then i put him away,
with a wicked jab,
from a razor blade,
and the women screamed,
as the bottles broke,
on stoney ground,
where the blood did flow.

i’m going back to mountain city,
gonna make those revenues run,
i killed a man in a feud of whisky,
i am a cruel bootlegger’s son.

now i roam the night,
just to hide my shame,
i lost all my money,
can’t find a friend,
gonna drag my bones,
to the mountainside,
if corn don’t kill me,
i might never die.

i’m going back to mountain city,
or else they’ll hang me this i know,
i killed a man in a feud of whisky,
i am a cruel bootlegger’s boy.

i’m going back to mountain city,
to the cherokee hills i started from,
going home broke ain’t it a pity,
i am a cruel bootlegger’s son.
