Moonshine In A Jar (11/21)

Sitting on the porch with some friends and acoustic guitars
Not trying to bottle lightning, just pouring moonshine into some jars
The sunset is on one side, the other's got the evening stars
Out beyond the pines you hear the passing of occasional cars

Rocking on the screen porch
(Rocking away)
Jamming with the bullfrogs
(Rocking away)
Hooting at the bobwhites
(Rockin away)
Bug candles help to keep the skeeters at bay

We play the same songs that we always play
Simple country blues where you can mean what you say
It's not complicated but it makes you feel good
When music sounds the way that you know that it should

Rocking on the screen porch
(Rocking away)
Jamming with the bullfrogs
(Rocking away)
Hooting at the bobwhites
(Rockin away)
Bug candles help to keep the skeeters at bay

They cut down the pine trees
Carved up the plots
Put in a Walmart
Brought in some slots
I learned some new songs
But it's just not the same
As music from the heart which tells the world from whence you came

Yeah we're
Rocking on the screen porch
(Rocking away)
Jamming with the bullfrogs
(Rocking away)
Hooting at the bobwhites
(Rockin away)
Bug candles help to keep the skeeters at bay

(Solo)
