Bringing the Moonshine!
Y’all we are 6x ashamed-not, rednecker, porch-swing fiddlers & banjo twangin’, overall wearin’, barefoot stompin’, local vocal folk, mainly from da backwoods; Embracin’:- 3x spent-shells hog shootin’, dirt slingin’, gospel nugget diggin’, all purty smarts (‘cept one has trouble sayin’ “six”) virginal human beans & 3x well-worn, full kegs, who cook & chew jerky made from their dirt-road, road-killin’, are needin’ bits o’ dental work from messin’ ‘bout with moonshinin’, & gots cheap seats. 3+3=6 Yee haw!
We’re all somehow fixin’ to fun-rai$e wad$ of ca$h 4 da kids, even if no one seems to have a red razoo, so people don’t lose hope, ‘specially da kids.And supportin’ the endangered & maligned fossil fuel industry by takin’ da limo on dirt roads down yonder, a long-haul from da Hillbilly backwoods, playin’ Hillbilly cassettes & singin’… ‘cept none of us can carry a tune in a bucket.
