Well, down in Houston, Texas way back in the hills
Lived my pappy Denny and he had him a still
He brewed white lightning' til the sun went down
He'd fill him a jug and he'd pass it around
Mighty mighty pleasin Pappy's corn squeezing
Pshewwww White Lightning'
Well, the G-men, T-men, revenuers too
Searchin for a place where he made his brew
They were lookin tryin to book him
But my pappy kept a cookin
Pshewwww White Lightnin
Well I asked my pappy Dilly why he called his brew
White lightnin instead of Mountain Dew
I took a little sip and right away I knew
As my eyes bugged out and my face turned blue
Lightning started flashing
Thunder started clashing
Shew my goodness White Lightnin
Well the G-men, T-men, revenuers too
Searchin for a place where he made his brew
They were lookin trying to book him
But my pappy kept a cookin
Pshewwww White Lightnin
Well a city slicker came and he said "I'm tough
I think I wanna taste that powerful stuff"
He took one sip and he drank it on down
I heard him a moanin as he hit the ground
Mighty mighty pleasin
Pappy's corn squeezin
Pshewww White Lightnin
Well the G-men, T-men, revenuers too
Searchin for a place where he made his brew
They were lookin tryin to book him
Pappy kept a cookin'
Pshewww White Lightnin
