Mountain Dew

(Scott Wiseman - Bascomb L.Lunsford)



(They call it that ole mountain dew)

(And them that refuse it are few)

I'll hush up my mug if you'll just fill up my jug

With that good ole mountain dew.



There's an old holler tree down the road away from me

Where you lay down a dollar or two

Go around the bend then you come back again

There's a jug full of good ole mountain dew.



Well, they call it that ole mountain dew

And them that refuse it are few

I'll hush up my mug if you'll just fill up my jug

With that good ole mountain dew.

My uncle Mort was sawed off and short

He measured about four foot two

But he thinks he's a giant when you give him a pint

Of the good ole mountain dew.



Well, they call it that ole mountain dew

And them that refuse it are few

I'll hush up my mug if you'll just fill up my jug

With that good ole mountain dew.

My brother Bill ran a still on the hill

He'd run off a gallon or two

And the buzzards in the sky'd get so drunk they couldn't fly

From smellin' that good ole mountain dew.



Well, they call it that ole mountain dew

And them that refuse it are few

I'll hush up my mug if you'll just fill up my jug

With that good ole mountain dew.

Well, the preacher rode by had his head hasted high

Said his wife had been down with the flu

And he thought that I o'rt to sell him

A quart of my good ole mountain dew.



Well, they call it that ole mountain dew

And them that refuse it are few

I'll hush up my mug if you'll just fill up my jug

With that good ole mountain dew...
