| Lyrics: | Drivin in my four door Ford through Carolina Hope that Johnny Law don't see, what's inside her Goin real slow, he don't have to know But if he turns sirens on, I'm tearing up this road Nothin here to see, got nothing on me Ain’t gonna find the shine underneath my seat Aint doin nothing wrong, so just move along I'm a bootlegging bandit, that’s my job Takin Highway 1, got an order for the judge Once his case is gone, I'm headed back home 5-0s right behind me, now he's creepin up Flashin’ those lights at the back of my truck You know what he wants… He wants that Apple Pie Moonshine I brew it up real fine Sell it to the senator, lives out on the state line Wants it tonight, I said it’s gonna take time Today it aint easy, but it’s worth waiting for I know he'll pay me double if I bring it to his door He said take the money, multiply it times four He wants that Apple Pie Moonshine I put the pedal to the floor, turn up the radio My body’s pushin back as I hear that engine roar Making my escape faster than before Headin through the backwoods, Exit 84 Sherriff’s still behind me, when I see that sign An X in black and white, the crossings to the right Cautions up ahead, but I’m flying through the red Aint gonna catch me, I’d rather be dead Got that sour mash, stashed up in the back I didn’t break a bottle when I jumped those tracks The train comes rollin through, he dont know what to do Don't think he's ever seen how a country boy moves Hahaha Uh huh Chorus I'm the best in the business, can I get a witness? I try to tell um all but don't nobody listen I'm all about the hooch, make it in my kitchen And get it where it goes with the pistons in my engine Ya know the law can watch me but no they can't stop me I know you think that I'm bein little cocky I've done this forever, I'm better than the rest And mine is best moonshine you'll ever get Chorus |

Said Dave: "I enjoy making a living making music as there is something always new to learn. If you know one instrument, you can learn another. If you know how to engineer one style, you can always learn another. My main question I ask myself when writing and making music is "what gives you goosebumps". The mechanics of songwriting and engineering can get quite technical, however at the end of the day its what makes you feel something."
