Robert Hunter - Arizona Lightning lyrics
Arizona lightning Cut out like a thundershot His voice rang clear across the USA Where other men have tried and failed Ended up their days in jail This man always knew the horse to play Pick your bed up, beggar man Bird in the bush and none in the hand What's your sad excuse to live so long? Men been hanged for better things Than half the things you did today You go find some other place to stay Arizona thundershower Count the days and kill the hour Six foot deep don't seem so awful low, you know When the eagle hits the ground Sparks will fly for miles around Who could blame a man to curse or pray Strike a light or curse the shade Some of us have got it made While some men's children got to stall for time What you get for what you got Still don't leave an awful lot Could be you've got nothing left to give away California lightning chain Kicked out in the driving rain You broke every law of God and man An honest man would stand and die If he had one good reason why Or even half a leg on which to stand You don't look like one of me And I don't think I'm one of you But on the other hand you got your gun I don't need to have to ask What's that face behind your mask? It ain't much different than any other one I've seen Alabama backslap One step forward and two steps back That won't get you back to Buffalo, you know Just one thing left to say Every dog will have his day Take your own but keep your hands off mine Take your own but keep your hands off mine Bump and grind but keep your hands off mine Take it home but leave my own alone Knock it down but don't write on my wall Take your own but keep your hands off mine Take it home but keep your hands off mine [etc] |
