White Lightning

	  		
Intro: 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                      A      
Mighty mighty pleasin' pappy's corn squeezin'  
                       
(whew white lightnin') 


         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                       A 
Lightnin' started flashin' thunder started crashin'  

(whew white lightnin') 


         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                      A 
Mighty mighty pleasin' pappy's corn squeezin'  
                        
(Mmmm white lightnin')
