Lyrics The Stanley Brothers

The Stanley Brothers

Mountain Dew Encore

Down the road here from me there's an old holler tree

Where you lay down a dollar or two

Go on round the bend come back again

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

[Chorus:]

Oh they call it that good ole mountain dew and them that refuse it are few

I'll hush up my mug if you'll fill up my jug with that good ole mountain dew

Now Mr. Roosevelt told 'em just how he felt

When he heard that the dry law 'd gone through

If your liquors too red it'll swell up your head

You better stick to that good ole mountain dew

[Chorus:]

The preacher rode by with his head hasted high

Said his wife had been down with the flu

He thought that I o'rt to sell him a quart of my good ole mountain dew

[Chorus:]

Well my uncle Snort he's sawed off and short he measures four feet two

But he feels like a giant when you give him a pint of that good old mountain dew

[Chorus:]
