Sugar Maple Charcoal

Written by Mike Plume and Matt King

Brother bring me some water
Corn and Rye and Barley too
Sugar Maple Charcoal
Filter out these blues 

I met me a Cajun girl
From down round Cap Pele
Me and that Cajun gal
Run ‘shine outta Riverglade

Me and my Cajun gal
We built us a still.
Back in them sugar maples
Way up on ol’ Powell Hill
Way up on ol’ Powell Hill

Brother bring me some water
Corn and Rye and Barley too
Sugar Maple Charcoal

Making sour mash
Moonshine Whiskey
Pass around what we don’t sell in town
Making sour mash
Moonshine Whiskey
Pass around what we don’t sell in town

Brother bring me some water

We’re making sour mash
Moonshine Whiskey
Pass around what we don’t sell in town
We’re making sour mash
Moonshine Whiskey
Pass around what we don’t sell in town

Cops pulled me and my Cajun gal
Over on the way into town
Said the lawman with a pistol
“Son, you’re going down.”

Ten years without my Cajun gal
Ten years I did my time
Back in them sugar maples
She still makes that moonshine
She still makes that moonshine
She still makes that moonshine

Making sour mash
Moonshine Whiskey
Pass around what we don’t sell in town
We’re making sour mash
Moonshine Whiskey
Pass around what we don’t sell in town
