About the Artist
Lyrics
[Verse 1] 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 hanging off its hinges Kept banging me awake all night As I look out the window The only thing in sight [Chorus 1] Is dry lightning on the horizon line Just dry lightning and you on my mind [Verse 2] I chased the heat of her blood Like it was the holy grail Descend beautiful spirit Into the evening pale Her appaloosa's kicking Kicking in the corral smelling rain There's a low thunder rolling 'Cross the mesquite plain [Chorus 1] [Verse 3] I'd drive down to Alvarado Street Where she'd dance to make ends meet I'd spend the night over my gin As she'd talk to her men The piss yellow sun Comes bringing up the day She said "Ain't nobody can give nobody What they really need anyway Well you get so sick of the fighting You lose your fear of the end But I can't lose your memory And the sweet smell of your skin [Chorus 1]
