lyrics

Through the pines, on the mountain side
Smoke rolls off the hill
Everyday the moonshine is made, winding through the still
Pack it up in the back of a truck
a supped up 45
Elkhorn City sure looks pretty
If I make it there alive, If I make it there alive

Chorus:
Mama says she likes me the best
She'll never understand
Stealing blood and wasting love
Never means no end

Cruisin' past the G-man's path
Pushing 95
A sea of lights under the pale moonlight
He was waiting for me to arrive
Mama's home sitting by the phone
Waiting on the party line
She fears the worst and she'll know first
If I'm dead or alive. If I'm dead or alive

Chorus:
Mama says she likes me the best
She'll never understand
Stealing blood and wasting love
Never means no end

Chorus:
Mama says she likes me the best
She'll never understand
Stealing blood and wasting love
Never means no end
