I woke to hear you calling Black lightning Oh Momma you’d best quit talking Black lightning You say it’s gonna take me? You say it’s gonna take me right? You say it’s gonna take me But Momma I feel like I’m already gone
There ain’t no thunder There ain’t no rain The wicked moon is hiding Outside the birds are flocking Outside the beasts are talking Something is changing
Black lightning Great God Almighty Black lightning Lord Jesus save me The broken clock is ticking over the bed You cannot kill what is not already dead Smash! Smash! Burn! Smash! Smash! Burn!
There ain’t no thunder There ain’t no rain The wicked moon is hiding Outside the birds are flocking Outside the beasts are talking Something is changing
Yeah I look at the dirt and see the past rising up Lord forgive us the trees were bare when the river flooded We were trapped for six weeks with no food or water And I lost my faith that night brother dug up Father’s bones and lit ‘em on fire “Praise Jesus!” He shouted But I could not My mouth was stitched shut by cold talons of flame Yeah I know it was wrong but I went ahead and inhaled the sulfur anyway You see when you’re born in the country Your path is lit by black lightning
There ain’t no thunder There ain’t no rain The wicked moon is hiding Outside the birds are flocking Outside the beasts are talking Something is changing
Black lightning Great God Almighty Black lightning Lord Jesus save me I need you to destroy these thoughts in my head Feed my a poisoned slice of spiritual bread Smash! Smash! Burn! Smash! Smash! Burn!
There ain’t no thunder There ain’t no rain The wicked moon is hiding Outside the birds are flocking Outside the beasts are talking Something is changing Black lightningTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
