Current song lyrics
Well my name's John Lee Pettimore <br />Same as my daddy and his daddy before <br />You hardly ever saw Grandaddy down here <br />He only came to town about twice a year <br />He'd buy a hundred pounds of yeast and some copper line <br />Everybody knew that he made moonshine <br />Now the revenue man wanted Grandaddy bad <br />He headed up the holler with everything he had <br />It's before my time but I've been told <br />He never come back from Copperhead Road <br /><br />My daddy ran the whiskey in a big black Dodge <br />Bought it at an auction at the Mason's Lodge <br />Johnson County Sheriff painted on the side <br />Just shot a coat of primer then he looked inside <br />Well him and my uncle tore that engine down <br />I still remember that rumblin' sound <br />Then the sheriff came around in the middle of the night <br />Heard mama cryin', knew something wasn't right <br />He was headed down to Knoxville with the weekly load <br />You could smell the whiskey burnin' down Copperhead Road <br /><br />I volunteered for the Army on my birthday <br />They draft the white trash first,'round here anyway <br />I done two tours of duty in Vietnam <br />And I came home with a brand new plan <br />I take the seed from Colombia and Mexico <br />I plant it up the holler down Copperhead Road <br />Now the D.E.A.'s got a chopper in the air <br />I wake up screaming like I'm back over there <br />I learned a thing or two from ol' Charlie don't you know <br />You better stay away from Copperhead Road <br /><br />Copperhead Road <br />Copperhead Road <br />Copperhead Road
