5 million lovers Falling every day For a little ray of sunlight To help them through the grey Wake up every morning The pain won't go away But it won't be very long before The smile's back on their face The villagers were hiding White brandy in the lake They were discovered in the moonlight Retrieving with a rake The agents of the revenue Laughed and walked away But the Moonrakers clearly had The last laugh of the day Will you drink with me good fellow The essence of the corn Singing songs until we're mellow Our fathers sang before we were born Sang before we were born Moonshine and Maybury It'll take you to the ditch There's enough bite to take the chrome Off your trailer hitch Living on the nighttime Sleeping off the day We'll put white lightning in the car And make our getaway Lead is burning red for danger And it will make you dead But if a flame of blue is burning It will make your blues go away Make your blues go away
