(Warren Zevon)

I was born down in Corpus Christi
|
With a dram glass in my hand
|
When I was just 15, I got a job playing rhythm
|
With a Nashville Shaketown band
|
I've been playing the blues so long
|
I've been paying my dues so long
|
I've been traveling in the lightning
|
Traveling in the lightning
|
Traveling in the wind and the rain
|
I've been tryin' and tryin' to find the right place again... yeah
|
|
Now the last time I saw my sweet old mama,
|
Her eyesight was looking dim
|
And the last I saw of my dear old daddy,
|
His horse was aridin' him... yes he was
|
They've been singing the blues so long
|
They've been singing such a sad, sad song
|
They've been traveling in the lightning
|
Traveling in the lightning
|
Traveling in the wind and rain
|
They've been tryin' and tryin' to find the right place again... yeah
|
|
I've been traveling in the lightning
|
I've been traveling in the lightning
|
Traveling in the lightning
|
Traveling in the wind and the rain
|
I've been tryin' and tryin' to find the right place again... yeah
