DOWJi IN MOONSHINE VALLEY I came In from a blockade still Down in moonBhlne valley, Dodged the prohibition bill And hid In bootley alley. But most every night I rldo In some bootleggers fllwer No prison terms or gold chloride Can kill my taste no never. They fever me with boxing gloves Pistols, swords and Babers, This Is why a drunkard loves To slay his friends and neighbors. I try to trace my family tree But find the records vary, So brandy is no kin to me From whence spring Tom and Jerry. I gently flow by Schlosses farm If no one persues me My odor fills the woods with balm While some brewer brews me. Sometimes the Sheriff with hla band Comes when not expectad He upsets my brewing Btand But I am well protected. Regardless of the bone-dry bill I'm always stewed or stewing For stlllers still and swlllers swill While Volstead la persuing. Revenues may come and go Up branches, creeks or rivers. Yet through some atlll-worm It will flow On and on forever. ? VILLAGE BLACKSMITH. This 1b the time of the year to re member that nothing can take the place of fresh air and good food.
