White Lightening |
Well, in North Carolina, way back in the hills |
Me and my old pappy and he had him a still |
We brewed white lightnin' 'til the sun went down |
Then he’d fill him a jug and he’d pass it around |
Mighty, mighty pleasin, pappy’s corn squeezin' |
Whshhhoooh… white lightnin' |
Well, the G men, T men, revenuers, too |
Searchin' for the place where he made his brew |
They were looking, tryin to book him |
But my pappy kept a-cookin' |
Whshhhoooh… white lightnin' |
Well, I asked my old pappy why he called his brew |
White lightnin' 'stead of mountain dew |
I took a little sip and right away I knew |
As my eyes bugged out and my face turned blue |
Lightnin' started flashin' and thunder started crashin' |
Shhhoooh… white lightnin' |
Well, the G men, T men, revenuers, too |
Searchin' for the place where he made his brew |
They were looking, tryin to book him |
But my pappy kept a-cookin' |
Whshhhoooh… white lightnin' |
Well, a city slicker came and he said I’m tough |
I think I wanna taste that powerful stuff |
He took one s-slug and drank it right down |
And I heard him a moaning as he hit the ground |
Mighty, mighty pleasin, pappy’s corn squeezin' |
Whshhhoooh… white lightnin' |
Well, the G men, T men, revenuers, too |
Searchin' for the place where he made his brew |
They were looking, tryin to book him |
But my pappy kept a-cookin' |
Whshhhoooh… white lightnin'… |
