Lyrics White Ligtnin' - The Big Bopper
Well
in
North
Carolina,
way
back
in
the
hills,
Lived
my
pappy
and
he
had
him
a
still.
He
brewed
white
lightning
'til
the
sun
went
down,
And
then
he'd
fill
him
a
jug,
an'
pass
it
around.
Mighty,
mighty
pleasin',
you're
pappy's
corn
squeezin'
White
Lightning
Yeah,
the
G-men,
T-men,
revenurers
too,
Searchin'
for
the
place
where
he
made
his
brew.
They
were
lookin',
tryin'
to
book
him,
But
my
pappy
kept
on
cookin'
White
Lightning
Well
I
asked
my
pappy
why
call
his
brew,
White
lightning,
'stead
of
mountain
dew.
I
took
on
sip
and
then
I
knew,
As
my
eyes
bugged
out
and
my
face
turned
blue.
Mighty,
mighty
pleasin',
you're
pappy's
corn
squeezin'
White
Lightning
Yeah,
G-men,
T-men,
revenuers
too,
Searchin'
for
the
place
where
he
made
his
brew.
They
were
lookin',
tryin'
book
him,
But
my
pappy
kept
on
cookin'
White
Lightning
Well,
a
city
slicker
came,
and
said
"I'm
mighty
tough."
I
think
I
wanna
taste
that
powerful
stuff."
He
took
one
s.slug
and
he
drank
it
right
down,
And
I
heard
him
a-moanin'
as
he
hit
the
ground
"Mighty,
mighty
pleasin',
you're
pappy's
corn
squeezin'
White
Lightning"
Yeah,
G-men,
T-men,
revenuers
too,
Searchin'
for
the
place
where
he
made
his
brew.
They
were
lookin',
tryin'
book
him
But
my
pappy
kept
on
cookin'
White
Lightning!
