What is this Toll you speak of?
My old dad (Rest his soul) was right - we SHOULD have seceeded from the t'othersiders & dug that ruddy creat canal down the WA / NT & SA Borders, filled it with
water and mounted the beaufort guns!
I've a feeling him and HRH Prince Len of Hutt River mightta been kin. ;o)
He was deadly serieous - seeing those outhouse dunnys built in the middle of a freeway....kinda proves it (how can it be free if you have to pay to drive on it - another typical t'othersider oxmoron!).
My ol Granpappy was right! (mighty mighty Pleasin - granpappys corn squeezins!). LOL
Well in West Orztraylia, 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 fill him a jug and he'd pass it around
Mighty, mighty pleasin, pappy's corn squeezin'
Whshhhoooh . . . white lightnin'
Chorus:
Well the "G" men, "T" men, revenuers, too
Searchin' for the place where he made his brew
They were looking, tryin to book him,
But my pappy kept a-cookin'
Whshhhoooh . . . white lightnin'
--- Instrumental ---
Well I asked my old pappy why he called his brew
White lightnin' 'stead of mountain dew
I took a little sip and right away I knew
As my eyes bugged out and my face turned blue
Lightnin' started flashin' and thunder started crashin'
Shhhoooh . . . white lightnin'
Chorus:
Well the "G" men, "T" men, revenuers, too
Searchin' for the place where he made his brew
They were looking, tryin to book him,
but my pappy kept a-cookin'
Whshhhoooh . . . white lightnin'
Well a t'other sider came and he said "I'm tough"
I think I wanna taste that powerful stuff
He took one g-g-glug and drank it right down
And I heard him a moaning as he hit the ground
Mighty, mighty pleasin, pappy's corn squeezin'
Whshhhoooh . . . white lightnin'
Chorus:
Well the "G" men, "T" men, revenuers, too
Searchin' for the place where he made his brew
They were looking, tryin to book him,
but my pappy kept a-cookin'
Whshhhoooh . . . white lightnin'...
God I'm glad we do things different out west!
Cheers
