D 
I've been the moonshiner
Em 
for many a year

on whiskey and beer
G 
I'll go to some hollow and set up my still
Em 
A 
Em 
And I'll make you a gallon
A 
for a two dollar bill
D 
I'm a rambler, I'm a gambler,
Em 
I'm a long way from home
A 
And if you don't like me,
D 
well, leave me alone
I'll eat when I'm hungry
G 
Em 
and I'll drink when I'm drunk
A

Ten gallons of wash

No woman to follow and the world is all mine
A

I love none so well
A

Well, leave me alone

Oh, how I love thee

Bb 
Its breath smells as sweet

Eb 
I'm a rambler, I'm a gambler,
Fm 
I'm a long way from home

And if  you don't like me,

moonshine for me tea,
Bb

Thank you very, very much
And who said they didn't like moonshine?
I hope there's no battles
hidden under the seats anyway
We'll all be having great fun
for the night side
ladies and gentlemen
just before I go any further
I'd like to take this opportunity
to introduce you all to my band behind me here tonight
over here behind me on my right ladies
And gentlemen we have
Melvin Duffy on pedal steel guitar
Behind him is Jimmy Hughes
on bass guitar
And standing beside Jimmy
there on lead guitar, it's Ivan Gilliland
And the way in behind,
on the drums, it's Mark Hughes.
APPLAUSE
And joining me in vocal harmonies tonight,
ladies and gentlemen,
the lovely Trina Muir.
APPLAUSE
And also in vocal harmonies,
acoustic guitar and trumpet,
Crawford Bell.
APPLAUSE
And last but not least,
my MD, ladies and gentlemen,
on keyboards and accordion.
He's just put it down.
Ladies and gentlemen, Jim McVay.
Thank you very much.
Well, we're going to do a little
song for you this time.
And in my opinion,
this is one of the finest Irish songs
ever to have been recorded.
We hope you enjoy our version of Danny Boy.
