Del Reeves White Lightning Lyrics

White Lightning Lyrics

Well in North Carolina way back in the hills



Lived my pappy and he had 'im a still



He brewed white lightning till the sun went down



Fill 'im a jug and he pass it around



Mighty mighty pleasing my pappy's corn squeezing



(Whew White lightning)







Well the G men T men revenoers too



Searching for the place where he made his brew



They were looking trying to book 'im but my pappy kept on cooking 



(Whew White lightning)



[ guitar ]



Well I asked my pappy why he called his brew



White lightning stead of mountain dew



I took a little sip and then I knew



As my eyes bugged out and my face turned blue



Lightning started flashing thunder started crashing



(Whew White lightning)







Well the G men T men revenoers too...



[ steel ]



A city slicker came and said I mighty tough



I think I want to take that powerful stuff



He took one slug drank it right down



I heard him moan as he hit the ground



Mighty mighty pleasing your pappy's corn squeezing



(Whew White lightning)







Well the G men T men revenoers too...
