I'm a rambler, I'm a gambler, I'm a long way from homeAnd 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 Oh Moonshine Oh moonshine oh how I love thee It killed my old father but dare`nt kill me Bless all moonshiners and bless all moonshine Their breath smells as sweet as the dew on the vine
