I'll eat when I get hungry
I'll drink when I get dry
If the life I live don't kill me
Then I guess I'll never die
I'll tune up my fiddle
I'll rosin up my bow
And find a girl to hold me tight
Anywhere I go
Corn liquor corn liquor's what I cry
If you don't give me corn liquor boy
Somebody's gonna die
Somebody's gonna die oh lord
Somebody's gonna die
If the creek it was corn liquor
And I was a government man
I'd drink the whole thing dry
And tell the folks "Do what you can"
Got a guitar in my left hand
Got a pistol in my right
And I don't give a good goddamn
If we play or if we fight
Corn liquor corn liquor's what I yell
If you don't give me corn liquor boy
Then I'll see you in hell
Corn liquor corn liquor's what I cry
If you don't give me corn liquor boy
Somebody's gonna die
Somebody's gonna die oh lord
Somebody's gonna die
If I spend all my money
My money's mine alone
And I ain't never killed a man
What he left me to my own
I'll make my own corn liquor
I'll grow my own smoke too
And if I drink and smoke till I can't stand up
What the hell is it to you
Corn liquor corn liquor's what I yell
If you don't give me corn liquor boy
Then I'll see you in hell
Corn liquor corn liquor's what I cry
If you don't give me corn liquor boy
Somebody's gonna die
Somebody's gonna die oh lord
Somebody's gonna die
