Millie the Baker, read the sign in the window
At the corner, of Walnut and Vine
She had a fine reputation for her key lime pie
Meringue stacked three inches high

Those Texans drove far, for the healthy spring waters
Back in Nineteen twenty-three
But now we know the secret, why so many people came
They knew Millie by another name

chorus:
Moonshine Millie, she weren’t no hillbilly
Oh but she had some jars to fill
In the heart of Glen Rose, smack downtown
They never gonna find her still

It was the days of prohibition, you couldn’t buy a drink
There was a crackdown by Governor Neff
Texas Rangers had a mission, they would not fail
Nearly fifty men in town went to jail

They did a heck of a job, even locked up the Sherrif
A lawyer and a business man or two
There was one more place, that caught their eye…..
Millie served them up a slice of pie
