Does anyone have the sheet music to this song? I can only find one setting at the usual sources, and it’s not quite right. If you have it, please post or send me a copy.
(This is the one that starts: Gather up the pots and the old tin can / The mash, the corn, the barley, and the bran …)

Rose, I’ve heard this done with minor variations in the tune. If you’re looking for the words, try http://www.mudcat.org
Barry Taylor did a fantastic MIDI sequence of it.

Run like the devil from the excise man
Keep the smoke from Rising Barney.
No sheet music but have a recording of it.
Try JC’s ABC Tune Finder. I found it in several forms. The Acrobat PDF is in standard notation and covers both the verses and the chorus (which are pretty much the same, anyway).
IMHO, the BEST song about moonshine!
Hi Thornton,
If none of the above have given you what you need I have this Song & tune in several songbooks. Drop me an e-mail if you need it,
cheers, Martin
