  • I got a '69 Camaro, a Ram Jet 502
    I could win the pole at Bristol, baby, but I'm riding round with you
    Bored as hell, we might as well burn this tank of gas
    And if we're going nowhere, girl, then let's go nowhere fast

    Like there's moonshine in the trunk, and blue lights on our tail
    Like if we get caught they're gonna haul us off to jail
    Like we're helping out uncle Jessy, making a midnight run
    Let's drive tonight like this whole county's dry
    And there's moonshine in the trunk

    Well they say that's how the Duke boys and NASCAR started out
    They were hauling bootleg liquor and look where they are now
    Chances are I got a mason jar rolling round in the back
    Now white lightning's long gone, but it shouldn't be hard to act

    Like there's moonshine in the trunk, and blue lights on our tail
    Like if we get caught they're gonna haul us off to jail
    Like we're helping out uncle Jessy, making a midnight run
    Let's drive tonight like this whole county's dry
    And there's moonshine in the trunk

    Whoa, let's pretend we're running from the law
    Whoa, like we're the Bonnie and Clyde of alcohol

    Like there's moonshine in the trunk, and blue lights on our tail
    And like if we get caught they're gonna haul us off to jail
    Like we're helping out uncle Jessy, making a midnight run
    Let's drive tonight like this whole county's dry
    And there's moonshine in the trunk Writer/s: Brad Douglas Paisley, Brent Anderson, Charles Christopher Du Bois
