Official Lyrics

Sun went down

On Table Rock

You kicked your shoes off

On the dock


Ozark night

Summer heat

Moonlight dancing

At your feet


Water's still

Air is warm

Your hair falling

Across your arm


You take a sip

Give me that smile

Lord I could stay here

For a while


Butterscotch moonshine

Sweet and slow

Little bit of fire

When it goes down low


Moon on the water

Stars in your eyes

Warm summer wind

Under Ozark skies


Take your time

We got all night

Table Rock's glowing

In the pale moonlight


You lean a little closer

Everything feels right

Me and you

And Butterscotch tonight


Kimberling City

Settling down

Last few headlights

Leaving town


Cicadas singing

Pontoon sways

That kind of night

You wish would stay


One more pour

One more song

Neither one of us

Needs to hurry home


Black Sea Shines

In your hand

Barefoot summer

Toes in the sand


Butterscotch moonshine

Sweet and slow

Little bit of fire

When it goes down low


Moon on the water

Stars in your eyes

Warm summer wind

Under Ozark skies


Take your time

We got all night

Table Rock's glowing

In the pale moonlight


You lean a little closer

Everything feels right

Me and you

And Butterscotch tonight


Some nights

Don't need much

A little moonlight

A little touch

A slow song

Floating through the pines

And a little something sweet

From Black Sea Shines


No place to go

Nothing to prove

Just an Ozark moon

And me and you


Butterscotch moonshine

Sweet and slow

Little bit of fire

When it goes down low


Moon on the water

Stars in your eyes

Table Rock shining

Under Ozark skies


Come a little closer

Stay a little while

Let that moonlight

Catch your smile


Black Sea Shines

And the night feels right

Me and you

And Butterscotch tonight


Morning can wait

We got time

One last taste

One last smile


Table Rock moon

Ozark sky

And a little Butterscotch

From Black Sea Shines

Notes:

I originally wrote this as "Butterscotch Moonshine". It's my favorite of our shines. Before the actual name was put on the bottle, I wanted to call it Sweet Coochie. I still call it that. But in the bottle it was Christened Butterscotch Memories. "does it the taste remind you of those butterscotch hard candies that have the wrapper foil twisted on each side?"

So yeah. My favorite moonshine from Black Sea Shines of the Ozarks. The song really hits the feeling of relaxation and sweetness. The song gave me the opportunity to dream about being with a beautiful woman on a summer night in Missouri - instead of the shitty apartment i had been living in (in Saudi) when I actually wrote these lyrics. Fun story.

Aha. I named it Missouri Moonshine just to give a Shout OUT to the world about the beautiful state of Missouri. The home of our Butterscotch Moonshine. Missouri Moonshine. Awesome.

Sweet Coochie! Hee hee. I still unofficially call it that.
