| 作词 : Earle | |
| Well my name's john lee pettimore | |
| Same as my daddy and his daddy before | |
| You hardly ever saw grandaddy down here | |
| He only came to town about twice a year | |
| He'd buy a hundred pounds of yeast and some copper line | |
| Everybody knew that he made moonshine | |
| Now the revenue man wanted grandaddy bad | |
| He headed up the holler with everything he had | |
| It's before my time but i've been told | |
| He never came back from copperhead road | |
| Now daddy ran the whiskey in a big block dodge | |
| Bought it at an auction at the mason's lodge | |
| Johnson county sheriff painted on the side | |
| Just shot a coat of primer then he looked inside | |
| Well him and my uncle tore that engine down | |
| I still remember that rumblin' sound | |
| Well the sheriff came around in the middle of the night | |
| Heard mama cryin', knew something wasn't right | |
| He was headed down to knoxville with the weekly load | |
| You could smell the whiskey burnin' down copperhead road | |
| I volunteered for the army on my birthday | |
| They draft the white trash first,'round here anyway | |
| I done two tours of duty in vietnam | |
| And i came home with a brand new plan | |
| I take the seed from colombia and mexico | |
| I plant it up the holler down copperhead road | |
| Well the d.e.a.'s got a chopper in the air | |
| I wake up screaming like i'm back over there | |
| I learned a thing or two from ol' charlie don't you know | |
| You better stay away from copperhead road | |
| Copperhead road | |
| Copperhead road | |
| Copperhead road |
