The cherry trees in bloom along the Shawnee trail
Brew a storm of petals pink and white
I'm gonna drive into the city and pay back my bail
Then bring a pound of barley down your way tonight
We got the mashpot and the weighing scale
A shotgun and some fifties rolled up tight
Two bags of sugar and your daughter's face so pale
I don't take mine sweet anymore and you don't let her out of your sight

Give us a little taste
Before we go to waste
And another hundred years have passed us by
Thank God this county's dry

They dammed the river to grow an electric crop
The summer breeze is full of ash
They stripped the treeline and blew off the mountaintop
Walked all over town handing everybody cash
I bought some copper tubes and you bought a cop
A truck we pray your daughter doesn't crash
And mason jars we're gonna fill with Lemon Drop
Now let's sit around and wait for the lightning to flash

Give us a little taste
Before we go to waste
And another thousand years have passed us by
Thank God this county's dry

Maybe we were warriors once running through the woods
Or madmen howling beneath the moon
Well now, buddy, we're the kings of the neighborhood
So pour a glass and grab your stirring spoon
