Lyrics for Song: Dry Lightning
Lyrics for Album: Ghost Of Tom Joad
Dry Lightning
I threw my robe on in the morning
Watched the ring on the stove turn red
Stared hypnotized into a cup of coffee
Pulled on my boots and made the bed
Screen door hanginÂ’ off itÂ’s hinges
Kept banginÂ’ me awake all night
As I look out the window
The only thing in site
Is dry lightning on the horizon line
Just dry lightning and and you on my mind
I chased the heat of her blood
Like it was the holy grail
Descend beautiful spirit
Into the evening pale
Her appaloosaÂ’s
KickinÂ’ in the corral smelling rain
ThereÂ’s a low thunder rollingÂ’cross the mesquite plain
But thereÂ’s just dry lightning on the horizon line
ItÂ’s just dry lightning and and you on my mind
IÂ’d drive down to alvarado street
Where sheÂ’d dance to make ends meet
IÂ’d spend the night over my gin
As sheÂ’d talk to her men
Well the piss yellow sun
Comes bringinÂ’ up the day
She said Â’ainÂ’t nobody can give nobody
What they really need anyway.Â’
Well you get so sick of the fightinÂ’
You lose your fear of the end
But I canÂ’t lose your memory
And the sweet smell of your skin
And itÂ’s just dry lightning on the horizonline
Just dry lightning and and you on my mind
