Well my granddaddy was a good man

No matter what the papers say

He worked 'til he bled for everything he had,

He had us workin' just like a couple mules

My cousin and me were twenty feet deep
G Am
And covered in red mud clay

Verse 2
Am
Well we ran pipe from the creek bed
D C Am
Through the woods to the old grey shack
Am
It was worth the trouble to work them shovels
C D Am
For granddaddy's sour mash stash
Am
All the weeds and pecan trees hid his secret
D C Am
We all swore to keep
Am C
Well my granddaddy knew what the law would do
G Am
If they ever come snoopin' 'round back
Chorus
N.C. Am
Lord I'm down in the gulley

Where the creek is high

Lord I'm down in the gulley

Where only the moon shines

Verse 3
Am
Without money you can't buy nothin'
D C Am
And nothin' is a damned ol' shame
Am
When you're in the hole
C D Am
You'd sell your soul for runnin' water instead of rain
Am
Well the hills were filled with the smell of cash,
D C Am
Cookin' in a copper still
Am C
Everybody knew where to get their brew
G Am
And that made our family name
Chorus
N.C. Am
Lord I'm down in the gulley
D Am
Where the creek is high
Am
Lord I'm down in the gulley
D C Am
Where only the moon shines

For the man who was cookin' that bootleg moonshine

Well he called the press and he brought his best to

Tear our old shack down

But when they went for the stash my granddaddy laughed
Am N.C.
For the shack was a pump house
