Yeah, but now I can’t get Gillian Welch outta my head. Another great one, from Revival:
TEAR MY STILLHOUSE DOWN
(Gillian Welch)
Put no stone at my head
No flowers on my tomb
No gold plated sign
In a marble pillared room
The one thing I want
When they lay me in the ground
When I die tear my stillhouse down
Chorus:
Oh tear my stillhouse down
Let it go to rust
Don’t leave no trace of the hiding place
Where I made that evil stuff
For all my time and money
No profit did I see
That old copper kettle was the death of me
When I was a child
Way back in the hills
I laughed at the men
Who tended those stills
But that old mountain shine
It caught me somehow
When I die tear my stillhouse down
Chorus
Oh tell all your children
That Hell ain’t no dream
'Cause Satan he lives
In my whiskey machine
And in my time of dying
I know where I’m bound
So when I die tear my stillhouse down
Chorus
