Lyrics:

Well in North Carolina way back in the hills lived my old pappy and he had him a still

He brewed white lightning till the sun went down

He fill him 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 tryin' to book him but my pappy kept on cooking

(Whew white lightning)

[ piano ]

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

And my eyes bugged out and my face turned blue

Light has started flashing thunder started splashing (whew white lightning)

Well the G men T men...

[ guitar ]

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

I think I want to taste that powerful stuff

He took one slug and he drank it right down I heard him moanin' as he hit the ground

Mighty mighty pleasing my pappy's corn squeezing (whew white lightning)

Well the G men T men...
