[Verse]
C G C
Get you a copper kettle,
C G C
Get you a copper coil,
E Am
Fill it with new-made corn mash
Dm G
And never more you'll toil.
[Chorus]
Am Em
As you lay there by the juniper
Am Em
while the moon is bright,
Am Dm
Watch them jugs a-filling
Am Em Am
In the pale moonlight.

C G C
My daddy, he made whiskey;
C G C
My grand-daddy, he did too.
E Am
We ain't paid no whiskey tax
Dm G
Since seventeen ninety-two.

As you lay there by the juniper
Am Em
while the moon is bright,
Am Dm
Watch them jugs a-filling
Am Em Am
In the pale moonlight.
[Verse]
C G C
Build you a fire with hickory,
C G C
Hickory, ash and oak,
E Am
Don't use no green or rotten wood;
Dm G
They'll get you by the smoke.
[Chorus]
Am Em
As you lay there by the juniper
Am Em
while the moon is bright,
Am Dm
Watch them jugs a-filling
Am Em Am
In the pale moonlight.
[Verse]
C G C
Get you a copper kettle,
C G C
Get you a copper coil,
E Am
Fill it with new-made corn mash
Dm G
And never more you'll toil.
[Chorus]
Am Em
As you lay there by the juniper
Am Em
while the moon is bright,
Am Dm
Watch them jugs a-filling
Am Em Am
In the pale moonlight.
