average joey - monongahela rye lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
well i came to this country with nothing to my name
except a copper still and a satchel of grain
and i made my own way boys
till that old devil neville tried to take it all away

[chorus]
turning water into whiskey like an appalachian christ
sipping on monongahela rye
when the tax man comes to try to steal him some
i’ll swear all i have is mine
[verse 2]
fists was thrown, we burned a man’s home
and we was justified
it matched the fire in our bellies from that old fashioned rye
and now i face the gallows pole
if you want to quell this rebеllion you’d better let mе go

[chorus]
turning water into whiskey like an appalachian christ
sipping on monongahela rye
when the tax man comes to try to steal him some
i’ll swear all i have is mine

[verse 3]
well the water here is poison
but rye whiskey is mighty bold
we didn’t fight no revolution
just to turn around and do as were told

[chorus]
turning water into whiskey like an appalachian christ
sipping on monongahela rye
when the tax man comes to try to steal him some
i’ll swear all i have is mine
