Not very far from me there's an old hollow tree
          A                    E
Where you lay down a dollar or 2

And you go around the bend and you come back again
                   B7                E
With a jug of that good old mountain dew

E
Well they call it that old mountain dew, Lord Lord
    A                       E
And them that refuse it are few

I'm gonna hush up my mug if you'll just fill up my jug
                   B7       E
With that good old mountain dew

    
Now my brother Bill's got a still on the hill
Where he runs off a gallon or two
And the birds in the sky get so drunk they can't fly                   
From smellin' that good old mountain dew


Well they call it that old mountian dew, Lord Lord
And them that refuse it are few
I'm gonna hush up my mug if you'll just fill up my jug
With that good old mountain dew, pick one


SOLO


well the preacher came by with his head hoisted high
Said his wife had took down with the flu
And he thought that we ought just to give him a snort
Of that good old mountain dew


And now they call it that old mountain dew, Lord Lord
And them that refuse it are few
I'm gonna hush up my mug if you'll just fill up my jug
With that good old mountain, one more time now


They call it that old mountain dew Lord Lord
And them that refuse it are few
Now I'm gonna hush up my mug if you'll just fill up my jug
With that good old mountain dew, gonna tag it now

E
Ah I'll hush up my mug if you'll just fill up my jug
                   B7       E
With that good old mountain dew, yeah
