    Story Behind the Song
    the inspiration for the lyrics came after a show we played at the Anti-Club (r.i.p.) whilst on tour of So Cal. Leaving the club with the bartender, in the midst of a flooding Los Angeles, we ended up back at the loft of an artist in LA who hailed from Georgia and hence had some of that family fermentation known as moonshine. Into the wee hours sipping "the shine" and gazing into many surreal painted canvasses ... we recorded the song in Oakland at the House of Faith with Bart "the recording guy" Thurber with the help of Wiley from Automatic Animal and Krissy from Chaos Lounge.

    Lyrics
    I know it's cold outside
    warm your bones by the burning tree
    wander down to the river's edge
    shed your skin steppin' in with me
    swimming in the deepest water
    a darker world where you can see
    different fish from the end you live in
    still your friends and family

    I'm drinking moonshine from a paper cup and a rocking chair

    sometimes I wake-up early
    just lying in the grass outside
    watch the sky roll by above me
    breathing in all the memories
    I can see my old friends clearly
    a child's laughter carries in the breeze
    thanks for all the true blue Sundays
    Johnny's coming home again

    I'm drinking moonshine from a paper cup and a rocking chair
    I found a way take away all the worldly pain
    I'm drinking moonshine from a paper cup and a rocking chair

    fire that burns like sunshine
    light the moon from waters deep
    fire that burns like sunshine

    I'm drinking moonshine from a paper cup and a rocking chair
    I found a way take away all the worldly pain
    I'm drinking moonshine from a paper cup and a rocking chair
    come and give me all your love there's nothing left that we can share
    we be drinking moonshine from paper cups and rocking chairs
