Son Of The Mountains

Since the days of prohibition 'round here they've been making shine I had an uncle go to prison running jugs across state lines He told the judge who let him out, you'll never catch me doing that again He got a faster car and they never did I'm a son of the mountains, I'm a son a of a gun I'm as free as the river that through this hollar runs Blame who I am on where I'm from 'Cause I'm a son, I'm a son of the mountains By the time they make it legal, we're a long way down that road Hell, I don't care who you marry, what you brew or what you grow Up here we believe in freedom If there's a hill to die on, well that's mine Yeah, it might be an uphill climb But I'm a son of the mountains, I'm a son a of a gun Would you like a little moonshine? I think I've got some A little uphill climb don't scare me none 'Cause I'm a son, I'm a son of the mountains The good Lord willing and the creek don't rise It don't matter when you're up this high Dog on the porch, chicken in the pan Come on baby, take my hand Yeah, you're a daughter of the land and I'm a son of the mountains (I'm a song of the mountains) I'm a son a of a gun (I'm a son of a gun) I'm as free as a river (I'm as free as a river) That through this hollar runs (through this hollar runs) The highs and lows don't scare me none 'Cause I'm a son (I'm a son) I'm the son of the mountains The good Lord willing and the creek don't rise It don't matter when you're up this high I'm a son of the mountains (I'm a son of the mountains)
