Album: Honky Tonkin' 1997, PolyGram Records [Intro] E E A D A E [Verse 1]
            A                  F
Well, I was sent to a place in North Carolina

   E                       A
To check up on a moonshine still

    A                   F
But when I got there to my surprise

        E                         A
I could see a little light on the hill

          D
Well, the fire was a-glowing, already I was knowing

A
I was really hot on the track

    D
But in D.C. they said it couldn't be

      E
Well, I'll be the one to bring 'em back
[Chorus]
                       D
'Cause I'm a revenooer man

                      A
Yeah, I'm a revenooer man

        D           E
I got a badge in my pocket

      A
And a gun on my hip

D        E
Damn moonshiners

       A
Better never make a slip

                       D
'Cause I'm a revenooer man

E                         A
  Yeah, I'll get 'em if I can

          A
Well, the moon was shining bright

      F
And I looked down the river

  E                          A
I noticed on the side of the hill

        A                        F
I could see a red light that was glowing right bright

  E                     A
I knew it had to be a still

          D
Well, the people down the road said it wasn't far

A
But I better know someone

       D
'Cause when the moonshiners know I carry a star

     E
I'll bet my bottom dollar I'll have 'em on the run
[Chorus]
                       D
'Cause I'm a revenooer man

                     A
Yes, I'm a revenooer man

        D           E
I got a badge in my pocket

      A
And a gun on my hip

D        E
Damn moonshiners

       A
Better never make a slip

                       D
'Cause I'm a revenooer man

E                         A
  Yeah, I'll get 'em if I can
[Verse 3]
           A               F
Well, when I got there the woods was a-bare

     E                       A
They must've known I's on my way

        A
Well, I heard the branches shatter

        F
As they started to scatter

  E                         A
I heard two or three of 'em say
[Chorus]
                   D
It's the revenooer man

                         A
Yeah, it's the revenooer man

         D    E      A
He got a big 45 with loads to fill

D              E            A
Dragging and a-shagging to another hill

                   D
It's the revenooer man

E                        A
  And he'll get us if he can
A
