Copper Kettle Songtext
von Bobby Womack
Copper Kettle Songtext
... You know the song, don′t you?
Yeah, I think about the people
Well, had a copper kettle
Get you a kettle, kettle with corn
And cover it with new-made corn mash
And never no more will you toil
You'll just lay there by the juniper
While the moon shines bright, yeah
Watch them bottles a-filling
In the pale moonlight
Yeah, oh, oh, oh
My daddy, uh, oh he made whiskey
Well, and I think, my granddaddy, he made too
Oh! We ain′t paid no whiskey tax since 1792
And look what they've done!
It is laying there by the juniper
While the moon, the moon, the moon shine bright, yeah
Watch them bottles a-filling in the pale moonlight
The pale moonlight
And I used to just lay back and watch 'em, you know
Playin′ my guitar something like this, heehe yeah
Play it back
Yeah, I think about the people
Well, had a copper kettle
Get you a kettle, kettle with corn
And cover it with new-made corn mash
And never no more will you toil
You'll just lay there by the juniper
While the moon shines bright, yeah
Watch them bottles a-filling
In the pale moonlight
Yeah, oh, oh, oh
My daddy, uh, oh he made whiskey
Well, and I think, my granddaddy, he made too
Oh! We ain′t paid no whiskey tax since 1792
And look what they've done!
It is laying there by the juniper
While the moon, the moon, the moon shine bright, yeah
Watch them bottles a-filling in the pale moonlight
The pale moonlight
And I used to just lay back and watch 'em, you know
Playin′ my guitar something like this, heehe yeah
Play it back
