Dry Lightning

Use A− / A+ to adjust text size
I threw my robe on in the morningWatched the ring on the stove turn redStared hypnotized into a cup of coffeePulled on my boots and made the bedScreen door hangin' off its hingesKept bangin' me awake all nightAs I look out the windowThe only thing in siteIs dry lightning on the horizon lineJust dry lightning and and you on my mindI chased the heat of her bloodLike it was the holy grailDescend beautiful spiritInto the evening paleHer appaloosa'sKickin' in the corral smelling rainThere's a low thunder rolling'Cross the mesquite plainBut there's just dry lightning on the horizon lineIt's just dry lightning and and you on my mindI'd drive down to Alvarado StreetWhere she'd dance to make ends meetI'd spend the night over my ginAs she'd talk to her menWell the piss yellow sunComes bringin' up the dayShe said 'Ain't nobody can give nobodyWhat they really need anyway.'Well you get so sick of the fightin'You lose your fear of the endBut I can't lose your memoryAnd the sweet smell of your skinAnd it's just dry lightning on the horizonlineJust dry lightning and and you on my mind
