Dooley - The Dillards

Random Nonsense Sorry to spam ya'lls 'Journals', but I just wanted this up on my page. I love it too much. ^^
That's the Andy Griffith version. Here's the real one!
I love rock just as much as anyone. But I'll always love this music because 1. It's awesome and real music requiring no post editing, 2. Because it's my roots!
Listen to it!
Now Dooley was a good ole man, he lived below the mill
Dooley had two daughters and a forty-gallon still
One gal watched the boiler, the other watched the spout
And mama corked the bottles when ole Dooley fetched 'em out
Dooley, slippin' up the holler
Dooley, tryin to make a dollar
Dooley, give me a swaller
And I'll pay you back someday
The revenuers came for him, a slippin' though the woods
Dooley kept behind them all and never lost his goods
Now Dooley was a trader, when into town he'd come
Sugar by the bushel and molasses by the drum
Now I remember very well, the day ole Dooley died
The women folk weren't sorry and the men stood around and cried
Now Dooley's on the mountain, he lies there all alone
They put a jug beside him and a barrel for his stone
Dooley, slippin' up the holler
Dooley, tryin to make a dollar
Dooley, give me a swaller
And I'll pay you back someday
