My uncle Mort, he is sawed off and short He measure about four foot two, But he thinks he�s a giant when you give him A pint Of that good old mountain dew Chorus You take a little trash and you mix it with ash And you throw in the soul of a shoe, Then you stir it awhile with an old rusty file And they call it that good old mountain dew Chorus During the war we couldn�t get any more We didn�t have no sugar for the dew With a few old potaters and a few ripe tomaters We turn out some stuff, I�m tellin� you Chorus I know a guy named Pete, his hair ain�t so neat Though he fixes it with syrup and blue, But it stays right in place when he uses just A trace Of that good old mountain dew Chorus Old auntie June had a brand new perfume It had such a wonderful �pew� But to her surprise, when she had it analyzed It was nothing but good old mountain dew Chorus Old Deacon Crane took a trip in the rain Said his wife had come down with the flu And hadn�t I ought just to give him a quart Of that good old mountain dew Chorus There�s an old hollow tree just a little way from me Where you lay down a dollar or two If you hush up you mug, then they�ll give you A jug Of that good old mountain dew Chorus Mr Roosevelt told me just how he felt The day that the dry law went through If your likker�s too red, it will swell up Your head Better stick to that good old mountain dew Chorus |
