White Lightnin

Well, down in Houston, Texas way back in the hills

Lived my pappy Denny and he had him a still

He brewed white lightning' til the sun went down

He'd fill him a jug and he'd pass it around

Mighty mighty pleasin Pappy's corn squeezing

Pshewwww White Lightning'

Well, the G-men, T-men, revenuers too

Searchin for a place where he made his brew

They were lookin tryin to book him

But my pappy kept a cookin

Pshewwww White Lightnin

Well I asked my pappy Dilly why he called his brew

White lightnin instead of Mountain Dew

I took a little sip and right away I knew

As my eyes bugged out and my face turned blue

Lightning started flashing

Thunder started clashing

Shew my goodness White Lightnin

Well the G-men, T-men, revenuers too

Searchin for a place where he made his brew

They were lookin trying to book him

But my pappy kept a cookin

Pshewwww White Lightnin

Well a city slicker came and he said "I'm tough

I think I wanna taste that powerful stuff"

He took one sip and he drank it on down

I heard him a moanin as he hit the ground

Mighty mighty pleasin

Pappy's corn squeezin

Pshewww White Lightnin

Well the G-men, T-men, revenuers too

Searchin for a place where he made his brew

They were lookin tryin to book him

Pappy kept a cookin'

Pshewww White Lightnin
