Lyrics:
Lazy lightnin' sleepy fire in your eyes it's like desire in disguise
I keep on tryin' but I, I can't get through
Lazy lightnin' I'd like to find
Lightnin'
Lightnin' strike
Lightnin' strikes
Lightnin' strike me
Lightnin' strikes me
Lightnin' strike me down
Lightnin' strikes me down
Well, in the North of Carolina, way back in the hills
Me and my old pappy and he had him a still
He brewed white lightnin' 'til the sun went down
at the courthouse
And white lightnin's still the biggest thrill of all
Leather boots are still in style for manly footwear
Beads and Roman sandals won't be seen
at the courthouse,
White lightnin's still the biggest thrill of all.
Leather boots are still in style for manly footwear,
Beads and Roman sandals won't be seen;
at the courthouse
And white lightnin's still the biggest thrill of all
Leather boots are still in style for manly footwear
Beads and Roman sandals won't be seen
Well, in the North of Carolina, way back in the hills
Me and my old pappy and he had him a still
He brewed white lightnin' 'til the sun went down
at the courthouse,
And white lightnin's still the biggest thrill of all
Leather boots are still in style for manly footwear
Beads and Roman sandals won't be seen
the weather
That's kept him out all night
And the thunder rolls
And the thunder rolls
The thunder rolls
And the lightnin' strikes
Another love grows
Sam Lightnin' Hopkins, Mack Mc Cormick
(Once a Gambler)
Well in North Carolina, way back in the hills
Me and my old pappy had a hand in a still
We brewed white lightnin' 'til the sun went down
Then he'd
Well in North Carolina, way back in the hills
Me and my old pappy had a hand in a still
We brewed white lightnin' 'til
The sun went down then he'd
My love strikes like lightnin'
And it will hit you just like a falling tree
My love strikes like lightnin'
And it will hit you just like a falling
the weather
That's kept him out all night
And the thunder rolls
And the thunder rolls
The thunder rolls
And the lightnin' strikes
Another love grows
he'd fill him a jug mmm-hmm and pass it around
Mighty mighty pleasin' you're pappy's home-squeezin'
Bwsh, white lightnin'
[Chorus]
Yeah the G-men,
me with this endless night
Take away this state of lonely
Fill this emptyness with lightnin'
Emptyness with lightnin'
Darkness darkness, long
on fire
It's chain lightnin', too hot to fight
Hot on the heels of a Saturday night
Chain lightnin', out of control
Straight to the heart and down
Pigpen
McKernan is going to sing a
Lightnin' Hopkins song - The Rub
But Lightnin' Hopkins recordings
Have it under the title "Ain't It Crazy"
"Mighty
on fire
It's chain lightnin', too hot to fight
Hot on the heels of a Saturday night
Chain lightnin', out of control
Straight to the heart and down
Why, this car is automatic
Systematic
Hydromatic
Why it's grease lightnin'

(Grease lightnin')
(Grease lightnin')
(Grease
on fire
It's chain lightnin', too hot to fight
Hot on the heels of a Saturday night
Chain lightnin', out of control
Straight to the heart and down
Why, this car is automatic
Systematic
Hydromatic

(Grease lightnin')
(Grease lightnin')
(Grease lightnin')
