White Lightning lyrics
Song information
Artist: The Fall Album: Shift-Work
Lyrics
In north carolina way back in the hills Lived my pappy and he had him a still He brewed white lightning 'til the sun go down Then he'd get out a jug and pass it around
Mighty mighty pleasin' Poppa kept a-squeezin' and called it White lightning
G-men, t-men, revenue too Searching for the place where he made his brew They were lookin' tryna book him But my pappy kept a-cookin' it White lightning
I asked my pappy why he called the brew White lightning's full of morning dew Took one sip then I knew When my eyes bulged out and my face turned blue
A city slicker came and said "I'm mighty tough I wanna get a taste of the powerful stuff" Took one slug and drank it right down And I heard him moaning as he hit the ground
Shout!
