Traveling In The Lightning Lyrics - Warren Zevon

written by Warren Zevon, c. 1970 United Artists, c. 1996 EMI Capital Music Special Markets 

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
