The 15th Of October

15th OF OCTOBER
Jeff McClellan- Blueridge West Publishing-BMI

CHORUS
It’s the 15th of October boys
It’s time to get sober boys
(We) been mashing in these woods all summer long
Making straight corn alcohol
From early June til early fall
Got bills to pay, cold weather’s coming on

Five hundred gallons is what this season made
Less the little bit that we used for our self
Gonna turn it into green back cash
Before the sheriff finds our stash
And trust me boys he’s always on our trail

CHORUS
Fifty thousand dollars and we can winter well
As long as we don’t make no big mistakes
51 Ford pickup truck
Is waiting to be loaded up
Moonlight mountain rendezvous awaits

CHORUS
Turnaround/Bridge
We make our hay when the moon is shining
Don’t dare travel with the light of day
We aint bringing harm to anybody
Just wish the law would see it that a way

CHORUS
