Mountain Dew

The Clancy Brothers

The Real Old Mountain Dew
Beside a hill there is a still
Where the smoke runs up to the sky;
You ean always tell by the whiff and the smell
That the liquor boys are nigh

Refrain:
That the liquor boys are nigh
That the liquor boys are nigh
You ean always tell by the whiff and the smell
That the liquor boys are nigh
This mountain dew is made from grain
And mixed with water pure
And the alcohol that it eontains
Will all your troubles cure

Refrain:
Will all your troubles cure
Will all your troubles cure
And the alcohol that it contains
Will all your troubles eure
AII learned men who use the pen
Have writ its praises high;
It fills the air with perfume rare
Distilled with wheat and rye

Refrain:

Distilled with wheat and rye
Distilled with wheat and rye
It fills the air with perfume rare
Distilled with wheat and rye
Away with pills,'twill cure the ills
Of Pagan, Christian and Jew
Off with your coat and wet your throat
With the real old mountain dew

Refrain:
With the real old mountain dew
With the real old mountain dew
Off with your coat and wet your throat
With the real old mountain dew
So before we roll won't you have another bowl
Of the good old mountain dew?
Of the good old mountain dew?
Of the good old mountain dew?

Refrain:
Of the good old mountain dew?
Of the good old mountain dew?
So before we roll won't you have another bowl
Of the good old mountain dew?
WE DO
