Lyrics
About a half a mile down Eaglebreech Road, take a right on Colwheel Drive. Our grand daddy had a secret, it was way back in the pines. He said, "Son, it won't be long until my time is through. I want to take my secret and pass it down to you." So we hopped in his old pick-up truck and hit that gravel road. Three miles past old Shucker's Bridge and our old swimming hole. He pulled that truck up in the pines and said, "This here's where we start." He reached under the seat and said, "Now look here what I got." Yeah, he said, "It looks like water but it burns like fire. One sip of this, son, and you'll be higher than a kite. Now, don't abuse it cause it ain't no wine." I said, "Poppa, what you call that stuff?" He said, "It's Carolina Shyne." Oh that's right Then he cracked the lid on that mason jar and he said, "Son, take it slow." He got to tellin me how his grand daddy taught him to make it years ago. And he said, "follow me," as we walked through some weeds down the hill on a little footpath, to a liquor steel as he taught me the skill and I made my first batch Yeah, man, it looked like water but it burned like fire. It only took one sip and I was higher than a kite. Now, don't abuse it cause it ain't no wine. This, here, is grand daddy's famous Carolina Shyne. Oh that's right Well, to this day you can still find me on any moonlit night, down at that old liquor steel keeping the family secret alive. And I know it won't be long til that special day will come when I take my secret and pass it down to my son And I'll say, "It looks like water but it burns like fire. Don't drink too much it'll get you higher than an old Georgia pine. Now, don't abuse it cause it ain't no wine. This, here, is grand daddy's famous Carolina Shyne, made right here in backwoods South Caroline."
