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 aloneI'll eat when I'm hungry And I'll drink when I'm dryAnd if moonshine don't kill me I'll live till I die I've been a moonshiner for many a yearAnd I've spent all me money on whiskey and beerI'll go to some hollow and I'll set up my stillAnd 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 homeAnd if you don't like me You can leave me aloneI'll eat when I'm hungry And I'll drink when I'm dryAnd if moonshine don't kill me I'll live till I die I'll go to some hollow in this countryTen gallons of wash and I'll go on a spreeNo woman to follow and the world is all mineI love none so well as I love the moonshine 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 aloneI'll eat when I'm hungry And I'll drink when I'm dryAnd if moonshine don't kill me I'll live till I die Oh Moonshine Oh moonshine oh how I love theeIt killed my old father but dare`nt kill meBless all moonshiners and bless all moonshineTheir breath smells as sweet as the dew on the vine
