[Bb] Well, in North Carolina way back in the hills
Lived my old Pappy and he had him still
He brewed white lightnin' till the sun went down
Then he'd fill him a jug and he'd pass it around
[F] Mighty, mighty breezin' [Eb] Pappy's corn squeezin'
[Bb] [G] Whoosh, he-ho, oh, white lightnin'
[Bb] Well, [Eb] the G-men, T-men, the Revenue's too
[Bb] Searchin' for a place where we made it good
They [F] were lookin' tryin' to book him
But [Eb] my Pappy kept a-cookin'
[Bb] [A] Whoosh, whoosh, white lightnin'
[Bb]
[Eb]
[Bb] [F] [Eb]
[Bb] Well, I asked my old Pappy why he called his brew
White lightnin' stood in my eyes and view
I took a little sip and right away I knew
Had my eyes bugged out and my face turned blue
[F] Mighty, mighty [Eb] breezin' Pappy's corn squeezin'
[Bb] Whoosh, [A] whoosh, oh, white lightnin'
[Bb] Yeah, [Eb] the G-men, T-men, the Revenue's too
[Bb] Searchin' for a place where we made it good
[F] They were lookin' tryin' to book him
[Eb] But my Pappy kept a-cookin'
[Bb] Whoosh, whoosh, white lightnin'
Well, I said his liquor came and he said, I'm tough
I think I wanna taste that Pappy stuff
He took one sip of blood and drank it on down
I heard him a-moanin' as he hit the [F] ground
Mighty, mighty [Eb] breezin' Pappy's corn [Bb] squeezin'
Whoosh, whoosh, oh, white lightnin'
[Eb] Yeah, the G-men, T-men, the Revenue's too
[Bb] Searchin' for a place where we made it good
[F] They were lookin' tryin' to book [Eb] him
But my Pappy kept a [Bb]-cookin'
Whoosh, whoosh, white lightnin'
[N]
