Thunder 'N Lightnin' lyrics

Yeah, it was thunder'n and thunder'n and lightnin'

You know the day this poor boy was born

I ain't never known nothin' but your trouble

You know, your trouble and your hate and scorn

You know my daddy, Lord, he died in a train wreck

Yeah, my momma she was born to lose

You know my middle name is natural born trouble

Yeah. and my last name is the blues

Oh yeah

Yeah, my last name is the blues

yo-hoooo ya-hooo

I see the cold light a comin' from the window

Of your one-forty-thousand-dollar home

Oh yeah. but I dont need you people

Because the blues they was meant to roam

Oh yeah

Yeah. the blues they was meant to roam

Well now, hunger is my companion

Cold and pains they know my cry

Oh yeah

You people you can pray for salvation

Yeah, but the blues don't never die, oh no

Yeah, but the blues dont never die, ooooooh

'Cause it was thunder'n and thunder'n and lightnin'

You know the day this poor boy was born

I ain't never known nothin' but your trouble

You know. your trouble and your hate and scorn

You know my daddy. Lord, he died in a train wreck

You know my momma she died of the blues

You know my middle name is natural born trouble, Lord

And my last name is the blues

Oh yeah

Yeah, my last name it is the blues

yo-hoooo ya-hooo
