most song add ons never really improve the song but this really just added another generation to the list of long time runners and absolutely killed it .new favorite version. LOVE IT
Being a 3 year combat vet in Vietnam...I know what your brother would know. Right now I live in Louisiana...if you ever have a show down this way...please let me know. Would like to see it.
I love this version of the song!! I always thought this story would make a hella good movie!! Start witht the male version and end with the female version!! Sell it!! I want to go see it right away! I will listen to as much of your music that you put out there kiddo, I may be a great grandma but I know great music when I hear it!!
My granddaddy was a moonshiner from West Virginia just like his daddy, my daddy ran shine back in the 30's. This song has always touched my soul. BUT I LOVE your version!! It let's the girls in and it's AWESOME!!
My Dad was a moonshiner in Georgia in the swamps of the Alapaha River, he was a WW2 Vet, the stories he could tell would send chills down your spine. I miss those stories he told of his military experience and the shine making plus the other accounts of his experiences . I miss my Dad
I love Steve Earle's original. Seldom does a cover live up to the original, but this one does. Congratulations on a great performance and especially the added verse! I live up in Hancock County, TN. The motorcycle run on the maps called "Copperhead Road" runs right by my farm on State Road 63. This song could be about some of my neighbors, good, freedom loving, tough people. I love it here.
@@dghfarm1974 Yup, I have actually seen that sign when I was driving over in that part of the state one time. I was pleasantly surprised by it, and got a chuckle. Right in the valley below me is Snake Hollow Road. LOL ! The motorcycle route is on those maps they sell at some gas stations, and runs from Bean Station up 31 to 66, then down 66 to Rogersville where it goes onto 70, then up 70 to Kyle's Ford where it switches onto 33, and follows 33 to Sneedville, where it switches onto 63 and runs up through the ridges to Harrogate.
I’d be lying if I said this didn’t bring a tear to my eye!!! Lol I’m in Kentucky where we still have our copperhead road, the seeds of Columbia and Mexico line our fields and hills as the sweet smell of corn mash lingers in the air as the choppers search desperately for the gold in our hollers!! The “Cornbread Mafia” still bakes bread 😉😘😘😎
and id also be lying if i said it didnt. the extra verse hits home real hard for me, sound just like me minus the dress. very very very nice version !!!!
Do you know why they call it a ram Dodge because it dies when you're driving it and you end up ramming yourself into a tree forward found on road dead Chevy give me a forward any day I can fire it up start stopping stereo all day long
@@LewpyDrewpy714 you are slightly less than competent. Dodge used to be its own entity in the timeframe the song was written about. Rams didn’t exist. Actually, REAL car guys should tell you that technically big block dodges never really existed either…..

I was born in NYC, raised in Arizona and Arkansas: i get right what this song means, of so many country songs, i love this one the very most. America runs strong in my blood. Copphead road or just an old dirt road, this song describes how American life just is. 🇺🇸
WOW totally blown away. This was from my older brothers generation. He served over their in 68 and I'm going to make sure he listens to it. You did a really good job and you've got a great voice.
Damn girl! Song put a lump in my throat and tears in my eyes! Ya done reminded me of *my* family, *...FAMILY.* PERIOD! That was our family. Song always reminded me of us, but how you did it, and added to it... *dead on!* God Bless y'all.
Yep, agree 100%. I'd love to see covers of this cover, that cover other covers, etc...Can you imagine the transformation 20 yrs from now? 50? I'll be around for most if not all, of the 20, but 50 is really pushing my luck. Keep letting people know about music and history. It's rather important, like math.
Excellent, excellent, excellent. Best cover I have heard in a long time. The extra verse could have been written by Steve Earl himself. You matched the cadence and lyrical tempo to a tea. Well done.
I'm sure Steve Earle would love this version!!! Never thought anybody could do such a great rendition of this song. Girl you really did this song justice. Nice ....Thanks. What else you got???
@@DougieBee movies are made from just an idea. This is literally an outline for 3 acts, which most movies are, just like plays. A half way decent writer could make a good movie out of this easily.
@@gregarnold9182 Before my time. I think the song and movie were done at same time for that one. The Gambler from Kenny Roger's was a song that had a movie made of it. That is a great example, and it had less of a story line in the song than this song does.
Very Nicely Done, Sisters!!! Growed up in moonshine country, always loved Steve Earle's song bout such, an y'all have taken an made a credible cover of it, which I enjoyed, very much!!!!
Nailed it! I hope Steve has heard this because I'm sure he'd approve. The new verse sounds like it's meant to be there, all this needs is the piper to be perfect.
Reminds me of more'n 70 years ago...place called "Thunder Road". It related the heritage of country folk. " ...and it was moonshine, moonshine that quenched the devil's thirst, the law they swore they'd get him but the devil got him first." This song brings that back. GREAT job!!! 👍👍👍👍
this is the most awesome cover ive ever heard of a country song. i love the reverb. that big room sound gives me goosebumps every time i listen to this. ya'll put forth a great performance and i can tell you put heart and soul into it as well. great great job amy!!!
I've been out here in California almost 20 years now but I've never thought of myself as an Instamatic til tonight. Soon as I hear that sweet little sassy in your voice I was hooked. I'm already subscribed and waiting to hear what you can do with The lights went out in Georgia.
I HAVE LOVED THIS VERSION FOR YEARS NOW , AND I WILL BE LISTENING TO THIS ON. THE. NEW. EARTH. , MY HEART FULL OF UNCONDITIONAL LOVE IS SENT WITH THIS POST FOR ALL SOULS WHO COME TO THIS CHANNEL GOD BLESS ALL 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
I grew up in daytona beach, florida. Home of racing. I never knew the connection between racing & running moonshine until I read about it. This song holds a special meaning to me. You did this song good! I especially liked the extra verse. Thank you!
All I can say is Thank You. You breathed life back into a beloved song and made it spit fire with that extra verse. It's complete now. Wake up Hollwood, Its time this became a movie!
I discovered this version several months ago. Every two months or so, I find myself drawn back to it. While I loved the original, this one put the cherry on the top. Thank-you, Miss Amy.
Dang ma'am,you NAILED this song!!! I've always liked Steve Earl's version,but your's is better! Thank you for making a great song even better! Signed:Tennessee.
My dad came from West By God Virginia. My grandfather was a coal miner. He was damn hard man, hammered that way since he was 12 driving horses for a limestone mine. He was the sort folks said still had the bark on, and a rough bark it was. Thanks for keeping that spirit and history alive. My grandmother ran tons of clothes through a wringer washing machine. She used an outdoor like for decades rain or shine. She was small but tough as owl leather. Men get all the attention in the histories, but their women had to be just as strong and tough.
Love it. The history of making shine and the rise of NASCAR go hand in hand. So many racers started out running shine, running around a track making left turns must have been a real lark for those old boys.
Absolutely WOW! - I never "loved" this song. Till now. The goal of any remake should be to make it your own. Something I see none of- Until This ! You made it yours-AND you made it excellent !!
Beautiful positively beautiful speak the truth baby girl Well Done lyrics and all get this published put this on the are top-notch all the way God bless you and the entire band well done !!!!A-MEN BLESS YA ALL BEAUTIFULLY DONE !!!!!
I don't believe I ever heard "Copperhead Road " before but really love this. Had to come back to hear it again. Really, really love this. You did really good girl. Keep on keeping on girl. This is spool very good.
@@stevenporter6445 I get your point of singing about family and that love of family, but the family view of going from illegally selling moonshine either to benefit from the government prohibition or before and after prohibition to get out of paying taxes and licensing fees like the rest of society including as assurance that manufacturing facilities are to health standards that won’t cause serious outbreaks of disease, to learning to mass produce and distribute large amounts of heroine and methamphetamines, using flight skills taught to him by the United States Army! That’s family values! Don’t get me wrong Steven. I love Steve Earle and use to listen to him as a DJ, and I love the song.
I wasn't sure what to expect when this was recommended to me. Especially after this being on here for so long. Pleasantly surprised and makes me want a version of the original by Steve Earle done in this style.
@@winkleried You know that would actually make another interesting variation of the song. Instead of it being from the brothers prospective or the sisters, maybe its them both singing about it or something and at the end it switches to the only the sisters, (because if I remember correctly, everyone died but her in this weird song history thing.)
best cover of this song yet. the whole neighborhood just got tho hear this because i have the most bad ass sound system hooked up to my computer. Keep up the good work.
Wow. That was incredible. One helluva great take on this song. Love what you added, too. Of course, I had to subscribe, I've gotta see what else you've got
Finest version of this song I have heard. The alterations were clever, and the music is only lacking the bagpipes that Steve Earl used in his track of the same name. You still sent a chill through my veins slightly with the "Hey" . The pipes are so emotive and ragey that you could only benefit with them or a harmonica
This song was written by an aunt of mine outside Louisville kentucky before i was born she sold the writes to the song to feed her family they were poor tabaco farmers and never had much but they knew how to play the bongo and guitar .i remember visting them when i was a wee little lad and remember her singing us this song and telling us about how she had written it many years earlier and i remember us kids and my cousins walking down copperhead road to a little country store to get a ( soder pop ) as my cusins called it .we only had enough to get two and all 6 of us sat on the front step of that store taking turns sipping that nehie grape and rc cola and we walked quite a ways to get it and back to their home witch wasn't much more than a shack but it's what they had . This was some 50 something years ago never seen my cousins or aunt ever again couse we lived in Illinois and that was a world away back then .
I think it was about a moonshiners from south eastern Kentucky , who ran moonshine to the clubs in Knoxville Tn, and other larger city’s in the Appalachian south .
I love this. Most add-ons to classic songs never work, but that is not the case here. This works brilliantly and ticks every box. Well done and thank you for posting it.
Nicely done... all the way through... good driving rhythm, very tight timing, interesting lyrics, unique vocal qualities, and a different perspective on an old favorite. Well done! You've gained a fan.
I'm out here in the flat lands of Ks. An' this song, which I already Love, has been topped like a cherry on top of a banana split. TRUELY MAKES ME MISS N.E.Tn.!!!!!
Eddie Muldoon. Check out the band called Walk Off The Earth, (WOTE) here on you tube. If you watch this band, I promise you might change your mind about covers. To me and lots of other people, every song they do, is better than the original. They also produce their own original music. I really can't recommend them enough. Enjoy
@@cliffordyawn2696 is it just me but the vision i get big engine growlers straight thru pipes on a Harley rebeling against authority they have been there done it n still doing it n long may they continue .
I LOVE this song. I am descendent from the McCoy family of the McCoy/Hatefield feud, so I descend from a long line of moonshine smugglers. My mom was also born in Johnson City Tennesse and lived in Knoxville for years as a kid. I can relate to this song from my grandma's stories. I remember my mama telling me not to say anything if I saw a moonshine still while visiting Tennesse and North Carolina.

That song has always been one of my favorites. I like what you done to it. You didnt try and take away the legends work. You only added to it and what a kick ass verse it is. Thank you
This song always needed one more verse. Put a huge smile on my face that you found the right words and the right plot twist to complete it!
Couldn't agree more. Hat Tip from the Allagash , Northern Maine 🥃🦌👍
In a brilliant cover like it a little slip like that is acceptable
Fantastic... but... Colombia....

I don't know who the lady singing is but she is a bad ass I love this version keep up the good work hell of a job
Sounds sort of like Pattie Smith, but she never recording it. It's not Katie Smith. No idea.
Look at title.
Sing, girl❗❗❗
I'm betting on Alanis Morrisette
Pedal to he Metal. Excellent Job. Done with feeling!
Wow!! That is the best version of the song. Love it. Thanks for sharing!
The pace jack at the end!
Southern music is just so real and enjoyable.

Love this….defiance is a very underrated virtue 😀
It brings ideas as a Canadian!!
Would like to hear both this girl and Steve singing duet. Would be awsome, agree people? Well for me i would like it limitless
She’s singing about her little brother going to Vietnam and learning the trade, Steve sings it in the first person and makes it much more personable.

best cover of this song yet. the whole neighborhood just got tho hear this because i have the most bad ass sound system hooked up to my computer. Keep up the good work.
Loved it. Makes me want to get up off the couch and line dance by myself.
Nice job and just what was needed, So thanks Steve and Amy N' Me
this version just brought tears to my eyes. just simply amazing
Wow. That was incredible. One helluva great take on this song. Love what you added, too. Of course, I had to subscribe, I've gotta see what else you've got
Finest version of this song I have heard. The alterations were clever, and the music is only lacking the bagpipes that Steve Earl used in his track of the same name. You still sent a chill through my veins slightly with the "Hey" . The pipes are so emotive and ragey that you could only benefit with them or a harmonica
Yeah that would be a nice touch. Or a dulcimer, traditional instrument of hillbilly mountain people
Another nice difference is you can understand the lyrics clearly.
Check out Off Kilter or The Wailin Banshees versions for the bagpipes!!
This song was written by an aunt of mine outside Louisville kentucky before i was born she sold the writes to the song to feed her family they were poor tabaco farmers and never had much but they knew how to play the bongo and guitar .i remember visting them when i was a wee little lad and remember her singing us this song and telling us about how she had written it many years earlier and i remember us kids and my cousins walking down copperhead road to a little country store to get a ( soder pop ) as my cusins called it .we only had enough to get two and all 6 of us sat on the front step of that store taking turns sipping that nehie grape and rc cola and we walked quite a ways to get it and back to their home witch wasn't much more than a shack but it's what they had . This was some 50 something years ago never seen my cousins or aunt ever again couse we lived in Illinois and that was a world away back then .
Hello how are you doing today…?
I think it was about a moonshiners from south eastern Kentucky , who ran moonshine to the clubs in Knoxville Tn, and other larger city’s in the Appalachian south .
I love this. Most add-ons to classic songs never work, but that is not the case here. This works brilliantly and ticks every box. Well done and thank you for posting it.
Beautiful, excellent job. I seldom find covers to be comparable to the original, but, doll, you nailed it. So, add one more thumbs up.
Steve Earl is awesome, this version takes it to another dimension. Love it.
awesome
I love the new chapter this lady wrote and sang. This song could have many more chapters added because it tells true stories. Thank you
I listen to that song quite often. Love the new verse. Thanks for sharing!
What a fab voice you have done this song justice just keep listening to it love it thanks
Nicely done... all the way through... good driving rhythm, very tight timing, interesting lyrics, unique vocal qualities, and a different perspective on an old favorite.
Well done!
You've gained a fan.
That's one bloody kickass version. Backwoods classic. Intense vocals, and the band is terrific.
I'm out here in the flat lands of Ks. An' this song, which I already Love, has been topped like a cherry on top of a banana split. TRUELY MAKES ME MISS N.E.Tn.!!!!!
I saved this song on my cell under my Fav's I live in stupid NE but was born in PineBluff Arkansas I love my Southern roots... That is fer sure.
"Daddy drove the whiskey in a big BLOCK Dodge"....probably a 440. GREAT version of this song, love the added verse!
Absolutely Brilliant version of one of my favourite songs. Yee haaaa a hundred times
To a country boy that last verse just evokes the image of a pretty smile and a little leg when the officer walks up the window.
Thats quality.

I will be honest, I have never been big on covers. But this is excellent.
Eddie Muldoon. Check out the band called Walk Off The Earth, (WOTE) here on you tube. If you watch this band, I promise you might change your mind about covers. To me and lots of other people, every song they do, is better than the original. They also produce their own original music. I really can't recommend them enough. Enjoy
This is up there with the best of covers freaking love it .love from over the pond .gb.
I agree

Friggin' AWESOME! Best cover of this one I've heard!👍
This is so amazing! Loved the smuggler in a cotton dress imagery lol. Seriously, that last verse fits the story so well. Well done!
That 3rd verse is genius level stuff.
most covers are sub-par but you did good on this one. I especially liked the expansion into the Pettimore universe.
Love your "ladies are smugglers too" version. You go, girl!
Hey how are you doing today…?
I LOVE this song. I am descendent from the McCoy family of the McCoy/Hatefield feud, so I descend from a long line of moonshine smugglers. My mom was also born in Johnson City Tennesse and lived in Knoxville for years as a kid. I can relate to this song from my grandma's stories. I remember my mama telling me not to say anything if I saw a moonshine still while visiting Tennesse and North Carolina.
Fantastic extra verse, really lives up to the spirit of Steve's original. Thank you for bringing something new to an al time classic

🔥🔥🔥 Love this song! - “Big Block Dodge” not “Black Dodge “- Taking that engine down….. 😅🥰
No truer words ever spoken God Bless you
The singing is on point but man! The band is brilliant! Great version of a great song.
One of the greatest song ever written and love the extra verse from the sisters
That song has always been one of my favorites. I like what you done to it. You didnt try and take away the legends work. You only added to it and what a kick ass verse it is. Thank you
Loved this version. Had to listen twice, back to back.
Brought a tear to eye...
Same here.
First time I heard the original I was amazed.
And now --- THIS.
WOW --- The new verse is PERFECT.
