Down in Missouri
in the Ozark hills
There used to be a man they called
Sweetwater Bill
He used to drink more whiskey
than he ever made
There on that mountain
Way down in that cave
Chourus:
Oh Sweetwater Bill
A legend of the Ozark hills
Oh Sweetwater Bill
A legend of the Ozark hills
A man from Chicago
would come to buy his drink
He knew that whiskey was
the best he'd ever seen
Then one day the law man
caught Sweetwater Bill
They followed him to the cave
and busted up his still
Chourus:
He wasn't gonna go down
not without a fight
a double barreled shotgun
lit up the night
When it was over
dawn had settled in
that's when this story
became a legend
Chourus: X2
