White Lightning Express

The ole smell of corn wakes me every morn

I drive to the still for a twenty gallon fill

Lord I hate to get dressed, ya don't get a lot of rest

When you're runnin' the White Lightning Express

I built a tricky little bumper on the back of my car

And it came in handy one day

The federal boys locked their bumpers with me

I pushed a little button and I got away

With one state dry and the other one wet

I'm gonna end up to be a millionaire yet

That is if I don't meet my death

From a runnin' the White Lightning Express

My mommy told me, "It's illegal, you see"

What happened to dad can happen to me

They laid him to rest for mashin' the best

And a runnin' the White Lightning Express

I take my moonshinin' baby along

And she's gettin' pretty good at all of my tricks

If the ten penny nails don't slow down the law

She'll pour out the oil and run 'em in a ditch

With one state dry and the other one wet

Gonna end up to be a millionaire yet

That is if I don't meet my death

From a runnin' the White Lightning Express

Yeah with one state dry and the other one wet

I'm gonna end up to be a millionaire yet

That is if I don't meet my death

From a runnin' the White Lightning Express
