It was Christmas Eve down in Arkansas,
Cookin’ up the mash, I was workin’ raw.
Then I heard some bells, thought it was the law,
But it was Santa Claus, and he looked in awe.
He said, “Big Chuk, what’s this you brew?”
I said, “This here’s shine, pure mountain dew.”
He took one sip, then he took two,
Next thing I know, ol’ Santa was through.
(Pre-Chorus)
He was singin’ and dancin’ like a honky-tonk king,
Mixin’ moonshine with milk, doin’ wild things.
But then he passed out, presents still in the sleigh,
I said, “Get ya ass up Santa we got moved to make
(Chorus)
Santa rolled up to the still one night,
In a sleigh with reindeer, oh what a sight.
He sipped on my shine, said, “This feels right,”
Just a drinking and flying off of pure moonshine
(Verse 2)
I loaded up the sleigh, reindeer in check,
Put on the red suit, though it was a wreck.
Grabbed the naughty list, gave it a speck,
Skipped a few names, ‘cause, heck, what the heck?
Through the hollers and hills, I flew with speed,
Droppin’ off gifts to the kids in need.
Rudolph gave a nod, the crew agreed,
Look at me, driving while Santa’s drink
(Bridge)
Now Santa’s in the sleigh, drinkin’ water, feelin’ rough,
Said, “Chuk, you saved Christmas, man, that’s what’s up
I said, “No worries hoss, got a run to finish up
But next time you visit, don’t drink so much, puff!”
(Chorus)
Santa rolled up to the still one night,
In a sleigh with reindeer, oh what a sight.
He took him a sip said, “This feels right,”
Now Big Chuk’s drivin’ on Christmas night.
(Outro)
Now the kids are happy, the presents are done,
Santa’s back home, sleepin’ off the fun.
Big Chuk saved the day, yeah, I’m number one,
With moonshine and reindeer, Christmas was won.
(Tag)
So if you hear bells ringin’ in the Arkansas pines,
It might just be Santa sipping on shine!
