[Verse 1]
[Em]So m[D]any[C][Em][C][F]
[Gm]
[C]peo[Em]ple say they cut whiskey out
Just to have a little drink of wine
They [G]get [C]dru[D]nk every once in a while
[Em]They must have been
drinking moonshine
[D]And [Em]the deacon don't like it
I don't either
The deacon don't like it
I don't [G]either
[D]The [G]deacon [Em]don't like it
[D]I d[Em]on't either
It's a sin, [D]ain't [C]it a [Gm]shame?
[D]Lots o[Em]f people get
drunk once in a while
[G]Just [Em]to speak their sober mind
When they get [D]caught
[Em]doin' crazy things
They put [D]the blame on [Em]ol' Ruth Shine
[G]And the[Em] deacon don't like it
I don't either

[Em]The deacon don't like it
[Fm]I don't either
It's [Em]a sin[D], ai[Em]n't it a shame?
He told me yellow corn whiskey
is really the very best kind
Better [G]turn that corn into bread
[Em]an d stop drinking
that moonshine
Because the deacon don't like it,
I don't [C]either
The deacon [Em]don't like it, I don't [D]either
The deacon [Em]don't like it,

There's [Em]a si[D]n and [G]a shame
[D]This coun[G]try's [Em]gonna be lost,
keep[C]s o[G]n goi[C]ng the way i[Em]t's going,
we can't even [D]have a little dancing [Em]town,

police don't like [D]it, I [Em]don't either,
this [D]is sick, ain't it a shame?
[G]Wel[Em]l, the elder went
to the sister's house.
She asked him to rest his hat.
He began to [D]laugh [Em]and grin.
[Bm]Said, [G]Sister, [D]tell me where
your hus[Em]band's at.
And the deacon didn't like it.
I don't either.

and I should vote [Bm]too.[D][G]
[Em]You used to [D]wear y[G]our
dresses [Em]so short,

[D]cause I [G]don't drink moonshine
Cause the dea[C]con don't like it,
