Moonshiners - Goodnight, Texas

Where were you when the saw mill burned?

I was out fighting with my grandpa’s gun

they can follow me as best they can

I can run quicker when there is no sun

Shine on

Shine on

Shine on

Shine on

Yeah, the government of this state

ain’t the only way that the sherrif gets payed

you can try to hide who you are

but they’ll see straight through your charade

Shine on

Shine on

Shine on

Shine on

Where do the hound dogs eat

when the people are thrilled?

Where does the smoke from your lungs go

once you lay still?

What do the cockroaches do

no one 'round

They live like the moonshiners

Half underground

Instrumental

Yes, it was me that burned it down

Confound everyone, make it well known

That after 33 years of this

I’ve got a government of my own

Shine on

Shine on

Shine on

Shine on

Where do the hound dogs eat

When the people are thrilled?

Where does the smoke from your lungs go

Once you lay still?

What do the cockroaches do

When no one’s 'round?

They live like the moonshiners

Half underground
