Copper Kettle
Joan Baez
Get you a copper kettle Get you a copper coil Fill it with new-made corn mash And never more you'll toil. As you lay there by the juniper while the moon is bright Watch them jugs a-filling In the pale moonlight. My daddy he made whiskey; My grand-daddy he did too. We ain't paid no whiskey tax Since seventeen ninety-two. As you 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. As you lay there by the juniper while the moon is bright Watch them jugs a-filling In the pale moonlight. Get you a copper kettle Get you a copper coil Fill it with new-made corn mash And never more you'll toil. As you lay there by the juniper while the moon is bright Watch them jugs a-filling In the pale moonlight.
