You Better Quit Drinking Shine

~ Recording by Rev. I. B. Ware with Wife and Son

Annotation

Confusion:
There are multiple reviews of this Recording, and multiple lyrics providers, that erroneously describe the lyrics of this song as being the same lyrics as Gid Tanner's Recording of "You've Got to Stop Drinking Shine" .
Whereas in fact the lyrics are very different.
