Bob Dylan’s Latest Gig: Making Whiskey

Get you a copper kettle, get you a copper coil
Fill it with new made corn mash and never more you'll toil
You'll just lay there by the juniper while the moon is bright
Watch them just a-filling in the pale moonlight.

Build you a fire with hickory, hickory, ash and oak
Don't use no green or rotten wood, they'll get you by the smoke
You'll just lay there by the juniper while the moon is bright
Watch them just a-filling in the pale moonlight.

My daddy he made whiskey, my granddaddy he did too
We ain't paid no whiskey tax since 1792
You'll just lay there by the juniper while the moon is bright
Watch them just a-filling in the pale moonlight.


Damnations TX did a great cover of Copper Kettle

The Weight do a nice job covering it, too.

The original "Copper Kettle" off Self Portrait is one of my favorite Dylan tracks.
E quindi uscimmo a riveder le stelle.
