Revenue Man - Shakin' Stevens

Well I was sent to a place

Down in North Carolina

To check up on a moonshine still

But when I got there to my surprise

I could see a little light on the hill

Well the fire was a-glowin'

Already I was know

That I was really hot on the track

But the NVC said it couldn’t be me

Yeah I’ll be the one to bring it back

Cause I’m a revenue man, yes a revenue man

I got a badge on my pocket and a gun on my hip

I find moonshiners and I never make a slip

I’m a revenue man, I’ll get ‘em if I can

Well the moon was shinin' tonight

When I looked down the river

I noticed on the side of the hill

I could see a red light

Glowin' really bright

I knew it had to be a still

Yeah people down the road

Said it wasn’t far

But you oughta know someone

'Cause when the moonshiners knew

That I carry a star

I bet my bottom dollar

That I’ll have ‘em on the run

'Cause I’m a revenue man, yes a revenue man

I got a badge on my pocket and a gun on my hip

I find moonshiners and I never make a slip

I’m a revenue man, I’ll get ‘em if I can

Well the moon was shinin' tonight

When I looked down the river

I noticed on the side of the hill

I could see a red light
