Biography:
What the hell is a Wrinkle Neck Mule? A sophomoric phallic reference? Too easy. A pack animal used in the Sierra Madre mountains of Mexico to transport opium to America in the early 1900s? History channel worthy, but wrong. A band of five (or four, depending on the wind) from Richmond, Virginia carrying indie-rockish country music about the land? Eureka. Daily double.
Born somewhere on I-64 between Charlottesville and Richmond, Virginia in late 1999

[VERSE]
C Am
Where do the old moonshiners go when they die?
C Am
What of their stills in the pines?
C Am F Am
Is their kettle still burnin' hot? Or has that still run dry?
C Am C Am
Papa was a whiskey man and his before him, now so am I.
C Am
Lord knows I miss them but I know I'm not alone,
F Am
When I look up into the night sky.
[CHORUS 1]
Dm F
Where do the old moonshiners go when they die?
C G
I've been told that they're livin' in that big dipper in the sky,
Dm F C Am G
It's their kettles still burnin' bright
F G
When I'm alone out there in the middle of the night
C C/B Am
Sittin' with my weed and my wine,
F G C
I look up through the pines and give a nod to that big dipper in the sky.

F Am
[VERSE 2]
C Am
Way down South Georgia in 1932,
C Am
old Uncle John was in a bind,
C Am
Owned himself the only general store for miles
F Am
Controlled all the farmin' supplies
C Am
Wasn't long before the I.O.U.s piled up;
C Am
people just couldn't pay
C Am
So it closed that store and up into the woods he went
F Am
Back to that moonshine
[CHORUS 2]
Dm F
Where do the old moonshiners go when they die?
C G
I've been told that they're livin' in that big dipper in the sky,
Dm F C Am G
It's their kettles still burnin' bright
F G
When I'm alone out there in the middle of the night
C C/B Am
Sittin' with my corn and my wine,
F G C
I look up through the pines and give a nod to that big dipper in the sky.
[BRIDGE]
G F C
And I know that they'll walk with me
G F C
When it's time for me to pass to that great by and by
G F C
And I pray the Lord will forgive me
F G
'Cause even Jesus Christ could use a little wine
C Am
Where do the old moonshiners go when they die?
C Am
What of their stills in the pines?
C Am
Is their kettle still burnin' hot,
F Am
or has that still run dry?

Where do the old moonshiners go when they die?
C G
I've been told that they're livin' in that big dipper in the sky,

It's their kettles still burnin' bright
F G
When I'm alone out there... in the pines
C C/B Am
Sittin' with my corn and my wine,
F G C
I look up through the pines and give a nod to that big dipper in the sky.
