Well I was sent to a place in North Carolina
To check up on a moonshine
Still when I got there to my surprise
I could see a little light on the hill
Well the fire was glowing and really I was knowing
I was really hot on the track
But in D.C. they said it couldn't be
But I'll be the one to bring em back
Cause I'm a revenooer man
I'm a revenooer man
I got a bandage in my pocket
And a gun on my hip
And them moonshiners
Better never make a slip
Cause I'm a revenooer man
Yeah I get 'em if I can
Well the moon was shining bright
As I looked down the river
I noticed on the side of the hill
I can see a red light that was glowing bright
I knew it had to be a still
Well the people down the road said it wasn't far
But I better know someone
Cause when the moonshiners know I carry a star
I'll bet my bottom dollar I'll have 'em on the run
Cause I'm a revenooer man
Yeah I'm a revenooer man
I got a badge in my pocket
And a gun on my hip
Them moonshiners better never make a slip
Cause I'm a revenooer man
Yeah I'll get 'em if I can
Well when I got back the woods were bare
Must've knew I was on my way
Well I heard the branches shatter
And they started to scatter
I heard two or three of them say
It's the revenooer man
It's revenooer man
He's got a big 45 and loads to fill
Dragging and shagging to another hill
It's the revenooer man
And he'll get us if he can
Yeah I'm the revenooer man
