lyrics

Well the ducks and the turtles stumble over one another
On the walk up on the hill
And the wheelwright’s working on a wagon for to tow
That copper whiskey still
To the holler of Mabry Mill

At the Mabry Mill fire up the whiskey still
and it drips like dew from the vine
Once you pour off a drink
You’ll be drunker than you think

Now the whole world’s looking so fine
The whole world’s looking so fine
The whole world’s looking so fine
The whole world’s looking so fine

Grind a little corn
Make a little meal
Watch as the water kindly pushes that wheel
Strike it while it’s hot
Hammer raining snow or not
Ed’ll fix it up for supper time
In Virginia in the summertime

Well the sun’s setting low
Now it’s getting time to go
And the colors light up the pond
Molly surely did her best in her pretty flower dress

Now the whole world’s looking so fine
The whole world’s looking so fine
The whole world’s looking so fine
The whole world’s looking so fine

Yee-hoo!
