Song | Copper Kettle |
Artist | Chet Atkins |
Album | Guitar Country |
Get you a copper kettle | |
And get you a copper coil | |
Cover with new cut corn mash | |
And never more you'll toil | |
Chorus: | |
You just lay there by the juniper | |
While the moon is high | |
And watch them jugs a-fillin | |
In the pale moonlight | |
Build your fires of hickory | |
Hickory or ash or oak | |
Don't use no green or rotten wood | |
They'll catch you by the smoke | |
(Chorus) | |
My daddy he made whiskey | |
My granddaddy did too | |
We ain't paid no whiskey tax | |
Since Seventeen Ninety Two | |
(Chorus) |
