Moonshiner's Ditty
I'ma gonna wake up, at the brink of dawn
Drink some coffee, throw my blue jeans on
The little red rooster is my alarm
Cock-a-doodle doodling on my farm
I'ma gonna water, all of my crops
Especially, my barley and hops
Then I'll roll up, a bunch of bales of hay
Where the goats and the horses and the cattle lay
I'ma going to the pasture, down by the creek
That's where I go, when I want to sneak...
A little moonshine, that I'd steal from my dad
It's the best damn moonshine that I've ever had
Yeah, I'ma gonna wake up, at the brink of dawn
Drink some coffee, throw my blue jeans on
The little red rooster is my alarm
Cock-a-doodle doodling on my farm
Then I'll rassle with the piglets playing in their sty
and I'll feed the Billy goats a little bit of rye
Then I'll fetch my little lady a cold bottle of wine
And steal another bottle of my dad's moonshine
Then I'ma gonna go, to see the rodeo
And then do a little square dancin' do the "Dosey Doe"
Then I'll stagger over by, the old rustic school
And I'll jump into the river, it's our swimming pool
Yes sir, I'ma gonna wake up, at the brink of dawn
Drink some coffee, throw my blue jeans on
The little red rooster is my alarm
Cock-a-doodle doodling on my farm
Gonna wake up, at the brink of dawn
Gonna wake up, on my farm
Gonna wake up, at the brink of dawn
From that Cock-a doodle doodling damn alarm
