"Revenooer Man" lyrics

Revenooer Man

Well I was sent to a place in North Carolina
To check up on a moonshine still
When I got there to my suprise
I could see a little light on the hill
Well the fire was glowing
And really I was knowing
I was really hot on the track
But in DC
They said it couldn't be
But I'll be the one to bring them back

Cause I'm a revenooer man
I'm a revenooer man
I got a badge in my pocket
And a gun on my hip
And them moonshiners
Better never make a slip
Cause I'm a revenooer man
Yeah I get them if I can

Well the moon was shining bright
As I looked down the river
I noticed on the side of the hill
I can see a red light
That was glowing bright
I knew it had to be a still
Well the people down the road
Said it wasn't far
But I better know someone
Cause when the moonshiners know I carry a star
I'll bet my bottom dollar
I'll have them on the run

Cause I'm a revenooer man
Yeah I'm a revenooer man
I got a badge in my pocket
And a gun on my hip
Them moonshiners better never make a slip
Cause I'm a revenooer man
Yeah I'll get them if I can

Well when I got back the woods were bare
Must've knew I was on my way
Well I heard the branches shatter
And they started to scatter
I heard two or three of them say

It's the revenooer man
It's revenooer man
He's got a big 45 and loads to fill
Dragging and shagging to another hill
It's the revenooer man
And he'll get us if he can
Yeah I'm the revenooer man
And I'll get them if I can
