Mountain Dew

Kingston Trio
 
[Verse 1]
Down the [D] road here from me there's an old hollow tree
Where you [G] lay down a dollar or [D] two
You may go round the bend, But you'll come back again
For the good old [A7] mountain [D] dew
 
[CHORUS 1 and 4]
They [D] call it that good old mountain dew
And [G] them that refuse it are [D] few
- 1 - If you hush up your mug they will fill up your jug
- 2 - I will hush up my mug, if you fill up my jug
- 3 - If I hush up my mug, will you fill up my jug
With that good [A7] old mountain [D] dew
 
[Verse 2]
Way up [D] on the hill there's an old whiskey still
That is [G] run by a hard working [D] crew
You can tell if you sniff and you get a good whiff
That they're making that [A7] old mountain [D] dew
 
[CHORUS 2]
 
[Verse 3]
The [D] preacher came by with a tear in his eye
He said [G] that his wife had the [D] flu
We told him he ought to give her a quart
Of that good [A7] old mountain [D] dew
 
[CHORUS 3]
 
[Verse 4]
My [D] brother Mort is sawed off and short
He [G] measures just four foot [D] two
But he thinks he's a giant when they give him a pint
Of that good [A7] old mountain [D] dew

[CHORUS 1]

[Verse 5]
Now there's old Uncle Bill. He's got a still on that hill.
Where he runs off a gallon or two.
And the buzzards in the sky, get so dizzy they can't fly.
Just from smellin that good old Mountain Dew.
.
My Auntie Sue has a new perfume
And it shore as a sweet smellin' pew
She shore was surprised when she had it analyzed
It was nothin but that Good Old Mountain Dew
 
[CHORUS 1/4]
