Mountain Dew
Midi music from: http://hjem.get2net.dk/poul/mountain_dew.mid

Down the road from me, there’s an old holler tree,
Where you lay down a dollar or two (or two).
You go ‘round the bend, and you come back again,
And there’s a jug of that Good Old Mountain Dew.

Chorus:
They call it that Good Old Mountain Dew! Mountain Dew!
And them that refuse it are few (dern few),
I'll hush up my mug if you fill up my jug
With that Good Old Mountain Dew.

My Uncle Mort, he is sawed off and short,
Stands about three foot two,
But you'd think he's a giant after he's had a pint
Of that Good Old Mountain Dew.

Repeat CHORUS

Where he brews up a gallon or two.

Just from sniffin’ that Good Old Mountain Dew.

Repeat CHORUS

Wit seats built in it for two,
But you can't get in no more cuz it's filled to the door,

His rear end gave us quite a view..

Way back in 'forty two (or three).
