I was just fourteen at the sawyer’s mill
Em A
When his ‘40 black Ford raced down the hill
B7 Em C
He said young man I hear you got some skills
G D G
There’s a quicker way to pay your mamma’s bills
[Chorus]
A D G
Two times the risk for ten times the bills
A G
Out-foxin’ the law like I always will
C G C
A hideaway cabin with a moonshine still
G D G
Its still standing up on hickory hill
[Verse]
Em A
Went for the sugar and the yeast at dawn
Em A
The sun went down now the game is on
B7 Em C
We cooked all day, now it’s stout and taught

Don’t need a license if you don’t get caught
