About White Lightnin'
"White Lightning" is a song written by J. P. Richardson, best known by his stage name, the Big Bopper. After he recorded the song himself in 1958, it was recorded by American country music artist George Jones and released as a single in February 1959. On April 13, 1959, Jones' version was the first number-one single of his career. The song has since been covered by numerous artists. Richardson never got to see the success of the record, as he had been killed in an airplane accident 6 days before its release along with Buddy Holly and Ritchie Valens.
