I been hanging with my Uncle Jack
Down in Cabbagetown across the railroad track,
I told him all about me and you,
Said I love her, Jack, but what can I do?
He said, I don't know about women.
Don't know nothing 'bout love.
One thing in the whole wide world
You can be sure of.
All whiskey ain't the same.
Good moonshine
Burns with a clear blue flame.
I said, Jack, I know you and Miss Rae
Been married forty years come Saturday.
You know that's how I want to do.
But it looks like now me and her are through.
He said, I don't know about women.
Don't know nothing 'bout love.
One thing in the whole wide world
You can be sure of.
All whiskey ain't the same.
Good moonshine
Burns with a clear blue flame.
I ain't saying that my heart's on fire.
But I ain't calling Uncle Jack a liar.
Something's burning now, and that's a fact.
I'll tell you what color when I call you back.
I don't know about women.
Don't know nothing 'bout love.
One thing in the whole wide world
You can be sure of.
All whiskey ain't the same.
Good moonshine
Burns with a clear blue flame.
