george jones - revenooer man (single version) lyrics
(johnny paycheck)
well, i was sent to a place in north carolina
to check up on a moonshine still
when i got there to my suprise
i could see a little light on the hill
well, the fire was glowing and really i was knowing
i was really hot on the track
but in d.c. they said it couldnt’ be
but i’ll be the one to bring ’em back.
’cause i’m a revenooer man
hey, i’m a revenooer man
i got a badge in my pocket
and a gun on my hip
and them moonshiners
better never make a slip
’cause i’m a revenooer man
yeah, i’ll get ’em if i can.
— instrumental —
well the moon was shining bright
as i looked down the river
i noticed on the side of the hill
i can see a red light that was glowing bright
i knew it had to be a still
well, the people down the road said it wasn’t far
but i better know someone
’cause when the moonshiners know i carry a star
i’ll bet my bottom dollar i’ll have ’em on the run.
’cause i’m a revenooer man
yeah, i’m a revenooer man
i got a badge in my pocket
and a gun on my hip
them moonshiners better never make a slip
’cause i’m a revenooer man
yeah, i’ll get ’em if i can.
well when i got back the woods were bare
must’ve knew i was on my way
well, i heard the branches shatter
and they started to scatter
i heard two or three of them say
it’s the revenooer man
it’s revenooer man
he’s got a big 45 and loads to fill
dragging and sh-gging to another hill
it’s the revenooer man
and he’ll get us if he can.
yeah, i’m the revenooer man
and i’ll get ’em if i can…
