White Lightning

Intro  In A

Verse 1

A
Well in North Carolina way back in 
the hills

Lived my old pappy and he had him a 
still

He brewed white lightnin' till the 
sun went down

And then he'd fill him a jug and 
he'd pass it around
E                      D         
Mighty mighty pleasin' pappy's 
             A
corn squeezin'

(whew white lightnin')

Chorus 1

         D
Well the T men G men a revenuers too
  A
A searchin' for the place where he 
made his brew
          E
They were lookin' tryin' to book him
       D                      A
But my pappy kept on cookin'

(Whew white lightnin')

Verse 2

       A
Well I asked my old pappy why he 
called his brew

White lightnin' stead of mountain 
dew
       D
Well I took a little sip and right 
away I knew
       A
And my eyes bugged out and my face 
turned blue
E                          D     
Lightnin' started flashin' 
                  A
thunder started crashin'

(whew white lightnin')

Chorus 2

         D
Well the T men G men revenuers too
          A
They were searchin' for the place 
where he made his brew
           E
They were lookin' tryin' to book him
       D                     A
But my pappy kept on cookin'

Mmmm  they couldn't find his white 
lightnin'

Verse 3

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

I feel I want to taste that powerful
 stuff

He took one slug and he drank it 
right down

And I heard him a moanin' an 
groanin' as he hit the ground
E                      D         
Mighty mighty pleasin' pappy's 
             A
corn squeezin'

(Mmmm white lightnin')
