The Lyrics

Don't Know The Original Song (DKTOS)? It's on YouTube
Well, I been drinkin' lots of moonshine
Guzzle down down
Drinkin' lots of moonshine
Woo! Here at the hoedown

Drinkin' lots of moonshine
Can't afford Crown
Drinkin' lots of moonshine
Woo! It's time to get down

Nine o'clock in the evening
I'm drinking from a jug
Got me ready for dancing
Gonna cut a rug

'Cause I've been drinkin' lots of moonshine
Knockin' it down
Drinkin' lots of moonshine
Woo! I'm such a booze hound

Drinkin' lots of moonshine
Talkin' real loud
Drinkin' lots of moonshine
Whoa, I better slow down

Lord, I am so wasted
But I'll keep drinking on

So I keep drinkin' lots of moonshine
Stumblin' around
Drinkin' lots of moonshine
Oh, I think I'll sit down

Drinkin' lots of moonshine
Holdin' it down
Drinkin' lots of moonshine
Ooh, I need to lie down

Five o'clock in the mornin'
I'm chuggin' my last chug
Guess my binging is over
Got an empty jug

'Cause I was drinkin' lots of moonshine
Gropin' the fraus
Drinkin' lots of moonshine
Oof, I'm gettin' slapped now

Drinkin' lots of moonshine
Fallin' down down
Drinkin' lots of moonshine
Splat! I'm lying face down

Lord, I am so wasted
Now where have my pants gone?

I been drinkin'
Chuggin'
Boozin'
Woo! I got a buzz now
Drinkin'
Slurpin'
Gulpin'
Woo! I'm havin' fun now
Drinkin'
Swiggin'
Quaffin'
Woo! Just watch me dance now
Drinkin'
Laughin'
Singin'
Woo! I'm such a stud now
Drinkin'
Swayin'
Belchin'
Woo! It's hard to walk now
Drinkin'
Stumblin'
Wobblin'
Woo! About to pass out
Drinkin'
Shakin'
Barfin'
Woo! I need some more now

Very clever. Your parody is nicely distilled.

I wish you could have included the spoken parts of the song but this was still a lot of fun and sounds a lot like my Friday nights. Haha

(Artistry) Man! Moonshine is some strong stuff! I have no idea how this guy was chugging it. I'm surprised he didn't die! Funny stuff as always Rex and it seems we're back to our old rivalry. (Stop doing the same song as me! You're making me look bad! LOL! JK!) ;)

It reads like a country song now...get some holdover from Hee Haw to sing it! :)

Great title, and a riot to read, Sir !

(Artistry) Bonus points for using the word "quaffin'", but even if you did that was a surprisingly solid parody for so simple a concept as getting plastered on illegal hooch. 555!

See Agri. . .for me it was much simpler than your normal stuff--but still could see this as a fun recording some day. . .speaking of which I need to get back to work on All Stars--just need to find some free time.
