White Lightnin' - George Jones

作曲：J.P. Richardson

Well in North Carolina way back in the hills

Me and my old pappy and he had him a still

He brewed white lightnin till the sun went down

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

Mighty mighty pleasin my pappy's corn squeezin

(Whshhhoooh white lightnin)

Well the G men T men revenoers too

Searchin for the place where he made his brew

They were lookin tryin' to book him but my pappy kept on cookin

(Whshhhoooh white lightnin)

[piano]

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

And my eyes bugged out and my face turned blue

Mighty mighty pleasin my pappy's corn squeezin

(Whshhhoooh white lightnin)

Well the G men T men revenoers too

Searchin for the place where he made his brew

They were lookin tryin' to book him but my pappy kept on cookin

(Whshhhoooh white lightnin)

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

And I heard him moanin' as he hit the ground

Mighty mighty pleasin you'r 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'
