lyrics

Momma I’m going over the mountain
To sell a jug of my moonshine
There’s a man over there
who give us a dollar a gallon
That’ll get us through to wintertime

Momma I’m going over the mountain
To fetch us all winter shoes
It’s a hard time when there ain’t
No way to make a dollar
God knows a man will do what he’s gotta do

I don’t mind dying in some coal mine
But I sure do mind the pay
If you want me to be an honest man
Then give me an honest wage

Momma I’m going over the mountain
To sell a jug of my homemade wine
There’s a lot good folks
Who’ll pay good money
For a jug or two of good ol’ time

Momma I’m going over the mountain
If I ain’t back by the first day of fall
Learn up like you should
on how to make that whiskey good
Because I probably won’t be coming back at all

I don’t mind dying in some coal mine
But I sure do mind the pay
If you want me to be an honest man
Then give me an honest wage

An energetic rock‘n’roll poet with a penchant for words and a passion for story – fancy boots, and a PBR t-shirt, a loose tongue and impressive side burns, driving 5 under on the highway with the windows down and the radio blaring. Anthony Leon is a storyteller, weaving his sermon of love and loss, feast & famine in with your own. . ... more
