White Lightning

Well, in North Carolina way back in the hills

Me, my old pappy, and he had him a still

He brewed white lightning 'til the sun went down

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

Mighty, mighty please and pappy's corn squeeze

Shhh, white lightning

Well the T-man's, T-man, revenues too

Searchin for the place where he made his brew

They were looking, trying book him, but my pappy kept a cooking

Shhh, white lightning

Well I asked my old pappy why he called his brew

White lightning stead 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 crashing

Shhh, white lightning

Well the T-man's, T-man, revenues too

Searchin for the place where he made his brew

They were looking, trying book him, but my pappy kept a cooking

Shhh, white lightning

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

'I think I wanna taste that purple stuff'

He took one slug and he drank right down,

And I heard him a moanin as he hit the ground

Mighty, mighty please and your pappy's corn squeezein

Shhh, White lightning

The T-man's, T-man, revenues too

Searchin' for the place where he made his brew

They were looking, trying book him, but my pappy kept a cooking

Shhh, white lightning
