Lyrics The Silent Comedy – Moonshine

«Oh Anna, ‘s there something you need?»
She answered, «The stuff’s not cheap it’s true…
But I like it!»

My spirits can drive you to drink

Oh, in the dark of a backwoods night
I blend my mash ’till the mix is nice
Copper flash and a pilot fire
How the pressure’s buildin’!

Up Black Mountain and back off the road
Shielded lanterns, their steps were so discreet
But I spied them!

12 gauge buckshot, smoke in a ring
Rusty padlocks, they guard my boilin’ wheat
Quite nicely!

Oh, how flashes light the sky
Lead shot flies and their fumes ignite
Bracelets snap and their fists do fly
I feel them flat as they hit my sides
I see their shapes in the red firelight
But I can’t stop or save it!

Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Anna!
