I haven’t heard that one since October 2005.Last time I heard it I was listening to a station on the road driving to Georgia in my PU with a load of bagpipes and drums, I believe we were in South Carolina at the time.

Thats a great song.

But lately I been listening to Roy Orbinson, for all of his short comings, that man could sing.

Barry Foley does some good stuff, but I haven’t kept track
of him lately.

Moonshine lyrics are deeply engrained in Southern Music.There must be dozens of songs.

I don’t think the Obama crowd is going to do much with this Wright relative of McCain’s, except increase McCain’s popularity. At least we have a good idea where the Maverick in McCain come from.

Seeing how he has a Scots name , and a shiner in his family line, I bet he’s teched the jug more than once.

Moonshine Still

There’s an old still in the
valley beside my daddy’s grave -
And a light burning slow
burning slow.
It’s the one thing that was left me
as I came back from the war -
And it’s still burning slow
burning slow.

No way could Billie ever need a moonshine man like me?
Illegal moonshine still
you bring me down.

I tried working for a living
even tried to sing the blues -
From my heart
burning slow
burning slow.
Turning music into money
couldn’t make her change her mind -
And it’s so burning slow
burning slow.
