Copper Kettle
Get you a copper kettle
And get you a copper coil
Cover with new made corn mash
And never more you'll toil
You just lay there by the juniper
While the moon is bright
Watch them jugs a-fillin
In the pale moonlight
My daddy he made whiskey
My grandmother did too
And I ain't paid my income tax
Since Seventeen Ninety Two
I just lay there by the juniper
While the moon is bright
Watch them jugs a-fillin
In the pale moonlight
Build your fire with hickory
Hickory and ash and oak
Don't use no green or rotten wood
It'll get you by the smoke
As you lay there by the juniper
While the moon is bright
Watch them jugs a-fillin
In the pale moonlight
Get you a copper kettle
And get you a copper coil
Cover with new made corn mash
And never more you'll toil
You just lay there by the juniper
While the moon is bright
Watch them jugs a-fillin
In the pale moonlight
In the pale moonlight
