I been hanging with my Uncle Jack
Down in Cabbagetown across the railroad track
I told him all about me and you
Said I love her, Jack, but what can I do?
He said, I don't know about women
Don't know nothing 'bout love
One thing in the whole wide world
You can be sure of
All whiskey ain't the same
Good moonshine
Burns with a clear blue flame
I said, Jack, I know you and Miss Rae
Been married forty years come Saturday
You know that's how I want to do
But it looks like now me and her are through
He said, I don't know about women
Don't know nothing 'bout love
One thing in the whole wide world
You can be sure of
All whiskey ain't the same
Good moonshine
Burns with a clear blue flame
I ain't saying that my heart's on fire
But I ain't calling Uncle Jack a liar
Something's burning now, and that's a fact
I'll tell you what color when I call you back
I don't know about women.
Don't know nothing 'bout love
One thing in the whole wide world
You can be sure of
All whiskey ain't the same
Good moonshine
Burns with a clear blue flame
