One night, just about a quarter to twelve
Saw my daddy out having a spell
Threw my mind to some of that
And got a job getting around
My, my baby, playing on the TV
Call that white lightning
G-man, C-man, rebel and thief
Looking for a place that ain't hip
And looking, trying to book it
But my papa gave me company
ย
Asked my baby why I called it blue
My mother said it was blue again
Looked for a sip down here
Well, my eyes closed down and my face turned blue
My, my baby, playing on the TV
Call that white lightning
G-man, C-man, rebel and thief
Looking for a place that ain't hip
And looking, trying to book it
But my papa gave me company
ย
The police sure came and slapped my hand
Why can't they show half a ton?
Looked for some dirty red jam
Soon as I know it has to hit the ground
My, my baby, playing on the TV
Call that white lightning
G-man, C-man, rebel and thief
Looking for a place that ain't hip
And looking, trying to book it
But my papa gave me company
