Corn Liquor ft. Jerry Gordon Lyrics

Mama said daddy was never around

'Cause he always off on his sacred ground

He took a copper pot and some old corn mash

And turned it into a pile of cash

Water yeast heat and a big old spoon

He made shine so good you'd howl at the moon

Only problem was he'd dip his cup

And he wasted his days drinking the profits up

Daddy sure loved his corn liquor

Daddy said Mama was a lying drunk

And she said he was a lowdown skunk

But both were right and bore the scars

From drinking and smashing their Mason jars

He drank for fun and she drank for spite

But they finally drank together one summer night

And by the grace of that fermented corn

Nine months later Melba Jean was born

Mama sure loved her corn liquor

Three kids later we'd had our fill

Of mama and daddy and the GD still

So we called the cops and the revenuers

And they smashed the still and poured the shine in the sewers

It was a glorious day and even now

I can still hear the axes going pow pow pow

Mama and Daddy sobered up that day

And they're doing great I'm glad to say

But Daddy sure loved

Mama sure loved

They both really loved

But us kids we hated corn liquor
