Moonshiners Ditty Collaboration

Moonshiners Ditty By; Charles Messina Collaboration 

Gonna wake up 
At the brink of dawn 
Take a shower 
Throw my blue jeans on

The little red rooster
Is my alarm 
Cock-a-doodle doodling
On my farm

Gonna water
All of my crops
Especially
My barley and hops

Gonna spread out 
All the bales of hay
Where the goats and the horses
And the cattle stay

In the pasture
Down by the creek 
Where we went 
When we wanted to sneak

A little moonshine 
I stole it from my dad 
The best damn moonshine
That I ever had

I'm gonna go 
And see a little rodeo 
Then I'm going dancing 
To do the do-si-doe

Then I'll stop by
Over near the school 
To jump in the river 
In our swimming pool

Gonna get my little lady 
A cold bottle of wine 
And get myself a bottle 
Of my dad's moonshine

She decline the bottle of wine
made a beeline
to dad's moonshine
by the end of the night she was mine

Michelle Faulkner July 29, 2018 at 3:04 PM Ohh, great line "by the end of the night she was mine," how tantalizing! (btw I posted a 'thank you' to my poetrysoup pals so I hope you check it out!)

Pandita Sietesantos July 23, 2018 at 3:12 PM This poem is outstanding - you and Charles outdid yourselves in this collaboration. It is so witty and lyrical that I would love to hear it put to music! Love it - definitely a fave for me! Hugs and love. Pandita Charles Messina August 28, 2018 at 8:16 AM This one was put to music by a band from Sweden. It is done in sort of a rock-n-roll style and it has a wonderful beat to it. Thank you Pandita!

Daniel Turner July 22, 2018 at 7:20 PM Very entertaining. Had me smiling all the way through. Just a little of that "who shot john" will do the trick. Some of that stuff will make you cuss your mother:) Eve Roper July 22, 2018 at 7:24 PM Hahaha... Hugs Eve
