Lyrics

White light goin' messin' up my mind
Don't you know it's gonna make me go blind?
White heat going to his toes
Lord have mercy, white light had it, goodness knows
White light goin' down to my brain
Hey, don't you know it's gonna make me insane?
White heat, down to my toes
Lord have mercy, white light had it, goodness knows
Work it
White light
Ooh, white light
Oh, white heat
Ooh, yeah, white light
White light goin' messin' up my mind
Don't you know it's gonna make me go blind?
White light, going down to my toes
Lord have mercy, white light had it, goodness knows
White light goin' messin' up my brain
Don't you know it's gonna make me insane?
White heat goin' down to my toes
Lord have mercy, white light had it, goodness knows
Work it
Ooh, white light
Yeah, honey, white light
White heat
Oh, baby, white light
White light now, now
White light goin' messin' up my mind
Don't you know it's gonna make me go blind?
White heat goin' down to my toes
Lord have mercy, white light had it, goodness knows
White light goin' down to my brain, ooh
Oh, don't you know it's gonna make me insane?
White heat going down to my toes
Lord have mercy, white light had it, goodness knows
Work it
White light
Oh, white light
Ooh, baby, white heat
Yeah, white light
