Copperhead Road (live) - Steve Earle & The Dukes[00:00:01]

One Two Three start [00:00:21]

Well my name's John Lee Pettimore[00:00:43]

Same as my Daddy and his Daddy before[00:00:49]

You hardly ever saw grandaddy down here[00:00:55]

He only come to town about twice a year[00:01:01]

He'd buy a hundred pounds of yeast[00:01:07]

And some copper line[00:01:08]

Everybody knew that he made moonshine[00:01:13]

Now the revenue man wanted grandad bad[00:01:18]

He headed up the holler with everything he had[00:01:22]

'Fore my time but I've been told[00:01:25]

He never come back from Copperhead Road[00:01:28]

Now Daddy ran the whiskey in a big block Dodge[00:01:42]

Bought it at an auction at the mason's lodge[00:01:48]

Johnson County sheriff painted on the side[00:01:54]

Just shot a coat of primer then he looked inside[00:02:00]

Well him and my uncle tore that engine down[00:02:06]

I still remember that rumblin' sound[00:02:12]

Then the sheriff came around in the middle of the night[00:02:17]

Heard mama cryin' knew something wouldn't right[00:02:21]

He was headed down to Knoxville with the weekly load[00:02:24]

You could smell the whiskey burnin' down Copperhead Road[00:02:26]

Hey hey hey[00:02:35]

I volunteered for the army on my birthday[00:03:01]

They draft the white trash first 'round here anyway[00:03:07]

I done two tours of duty in Vietnam[00:03:13]

I came home with a brand new plan[00:03:19]

I'd take the seed from Colombia and Mexico[00:03:24]

Just plant it up the holler down Copperhead Road[00:03:30]

Now the D E A 's got a chopper in the air[00:03:35]

I wake up screaming like I'm back over there[00:03:38]

I learned a thing or two from Charlie don't you know[00:03:41]

You better stay away from Copperhead Road[00:03:44]

Ah [00:03:52]

Copperhead Road[00:03:58]

Copperhead Road[00:04:04]

Copperhead Road[00:04:10]
