E                         G/A/E
Summertime in 1996.
E                                                 B7
Me and Bobby was hunting in the sticks.
B7          E                                                      A             
We was looking for some deer to shoot and we went ten miles and all on foot.

And then we found that shack to our surprise.
E                                                             G/A/E
Well we walked up to the windows cautiously.
E                                                           B7
And we wiped off all the dirt so we could see.
B7       E                                           A                               A
Well I put my head up on the sill and said "Hey Bobby now theres a still"
E                        B7                     E    G/A/E
And he said glory be we gonna get drunk.

Chorus
E
Cause theres a still in the shack.
E                  A
Oh theres a still in the shack.
A                  E                                  B7
Oh theres a still in the shack way out back.
B7             E                              A
And if we find any sign of that whiskey moonshine,
A                       E                  B7            E  G/A/E
than we gonna drink it till the day we will die.
Verse

So we busted down the door with one good kick.
E                                                                 B7
We fought our way through cobwebs two feet thick.
B7       E
Then Bobby fell and he scraped his knees,
      A
and I got stung by thirteen bees.
      E                  B7               E      G/A/E
So we retreated back into the woods.
E                                                              G/A/E
Now the bee stings that I had started to swell.
E                                                 B7
And I heard Bobby swearing all to hell.
E                                                A                            A
He said that we ain't lost yet we'll get that booze and thats a bet
E                                 B7                  E   G/A/E
Theres no one here its free man its all ours

Oh theres a still in the shack way out back.
B7             E                             A
Well if we find any sign of that whiskey moonshine,
A                       E                  B7                  E  G/A/E

E                                                         G/A/E
So we waited by the shack until night fell.
E                                                     B7
We mounted our assault and it went well.
B7           E                                                     A
Well we stole two jugs of whiskey lightning and we got drunk and took to fighting,
         E                       B7          E      G/A/E
And then we both past out so naturally.
E                                                           G/A/E
When I woke up I thought that I was dead.
E                                                   B7
It felt like all those bees was in my head.
B7        E                               E                      A               A
Then I looked at Bobby and I had to grin,his eyes were black as black as sin
E                               B7                     E      G/A/E
Now I thought Bobby boy that ain't bad booze

Oh theres a still in the shack way out back.
B7                  E                                   A                    A
And when we find all that shine ,all that whiskey moon shine.
A                E                   B7                 E  G/A/E
We gonna drink it till the day that we will die
