Well, in North Carolina, way back in the hill,
Lived my old pappy and he had him still.
He brewed white lightning till the sun went down,
And he'd fill him a jug and he'd pass it [Ab] around.
[E] Mighty, mighty, [D] pleasing, pappy's horse, please [Am] him.
[B]
Ooooo, White Lightning.
[A]
[B] [C] [D] Well, on a team and a team and a revenue was two,
[A] Slap, chick, fork, place where he made it brew.
[E] They were looking, trying to book [D] him, but my pappy said,
Won't come [A] down.
[Bm]
Ooooo, White Lightning.

[A] Well, I asked my old pappy, why he called his brew,
White Lightning stood a mile and a do.
I took a little sip and right away I knew,
As my eyes [Dm] bugged out and my face turned blue.
[E] Lightning started [D] flashing, thunder started [A] bashing.
Ooooo, White Lightning.
[B] [C] [D] Well, a team and a team and a revenue was [A] two,
Slap, chick, fork, place where he made it brew.
They [E] were looking, trying to [D] book him, but my pappy said,
Won't come down.
[Am]
Ooooo, [Ab] White Lightning.

Well, [A] a city slicker came and he said,
I think I want to taste that powerful stuff.
He took one sip, slugged and he drank it on down.
And I heard him [E] moaning as he hit the ground.
Mighty [D] fleas and pout, his thorns squeezing.
[Am] [B]
Ooooo, White Lightning.

[Bm] [C] [D] Well, a team and a team and a revenue was two,
[A] Slap, chick, fork, place where he made it brew.
