Baby Girl Is Sound Asleep, But When George Jones Starts Playing? Her Reaction Is Priceless

This baby girl was doing what everyone loves doing in the car during a road trip โ€“ taking a nap. 

She was sound asleep, but that all changed when she heard the music introduction to George Jonesโ€™ hit 1959 song โ€œWhite Lightningโ€. Just before Jones begins singing, the little girl suddenly woke up from her deep sleep and started bouncing around to the beat.

She danced in her car seat the entire tune and looked like she was having the best time ever! She thoroughly amused not only her parents, but also us at home. She had a huge smile on her face and clearly loves the song, maybe even more than we do!

She is a just a little bit too young to know the meaning behind George Jonesโ€™ very first No. 1 song. White lightning is another name for moonshine, and the song โ€œWhite Lightningโ€ tells the story about a kid whose father makes his own moonshine.

Wondering why his father calls his concoction โ€œwhite lightningโ€ instead of โ€œmountain dew,โ€ his father let him try a sip so heโ€™d know the reasoning behind it.

โ€œMy eyes bugged out and my face turned blue/Light has started flashinโ€™ thunder started crashinโ€™,โ€ he sang.

We hope this little girl will continue her love for George Jones! Watch the incredible moment caught on film below.
