[Chorus]
It's the fifteenth of October, boys
It's time to get sober, boys
Been mashin' in these woods all summer long
Makin' straight corn alcohol
From early June to early fall
Got bills to pay, cold weather's comin' on

[Verse 1]
Five hundred gallons is what this season made
Less the little bit that we keep for ourself
Gonna turn it into greenback cash
Before the sheriff finds our stash
And trust me, boys, he's always on our trail

[Chorus]
It's the fifteenth of October, boys
It's time to get sober, boys
Been mashin' in these woods all summer long
Makin' straight corn alcohol
From early June to early fall
Got bills to pay, cold weather's comin' on

[Verse 2]
Fifty thousand dollars and we can wintеr well
As long as we don't make no big mistakеs
A 51 Ford pickup truck
Is waiting to be loaded up
A moonlight mountain rendezvous awaits
[Bridge]
We make our hay when the moon is shining
Don't dare travel with the light of day
We ain't bringin' harm to anybody
I just wish the law would see it that way

[Chorus]
It's the fifteenth of October, boys
It's time to get sober, boys
Been mashin' in these woods all summer long
Makin' straight corn alcohol
From early June to early fall
Got bills to pay, cold weather's comin' on

[Chorus]
It's the fifteenth of October, boys
It's time to get sober, boys
Been mashin' in these woods all summer long
Makin' straight corn alcohol
From early June to early fall
Got bills to pay, cold weather's comin' on
