Bob Dylan Lyrics - Copper Kettle Lyrics lyrics

rate me

Get you a copper kettle, get you a copper coil,

Fill it with new-made corn mash and never more you'll toil.

You'll just lay there by the juniper while the moon is bright,

Watch them jugs a-filling

In the pale moonlight.

Build you a fire with hickory, hickory, ash and oak,

Don't use no green or rotten wood; they'll get you by the smoke.

We'll just lay there by the juniper... etc.

My daddy, he made whiskey; my granddaddy, he did too.

We ain't paid no whiskey tax since 1792.

We just lay there by the juniper... etc.

(LAST LINE REPEATED)
