The Last Bite

I got a match and I've got a knife

I’m going to the backwoods for some kind of fight

Shadow behind and the Moon out in front

Lights the path of a man on the run

They saw me in Winchester unload the car

They saw me sell the boxes to the bar

And followed me back on Route 33

A car full of agents huntin' me

I sprinted from my door and ran straight for the hills

Where last spring there I'd hid my still

I hear these men, they take no one alive

So I guess I got one more surprise

I poured all the shine and tipped all the stills

Lit the fuse that’ll blow up the whole damn hill

The Marshall and his men, they came storming in

Guns blazing, killing me with a 9-mill

Gander 'round and what do you see?

White lightning in the nighttime sky

Cover your ears or you will hear

Those gunshots echo in the night

A last bite of my federal fight

A last bite of my federal fight

A last bite of my federal fight
