Lightning struck the Family Tree

i could smell the smoke and fire

in my fathers voice

like he could smell it

in his fathers voice

like he could ........

lightning struck the family tree

and

all the wine

all the beer

all the pills

all the tears

can't put out the fire

lightning struck the family tree

it shoots out of my fingertips

exploding like a beer bottle

thrown at a highway sign

on a saturday night

lightning struck the family tree

get out of my way

i'll light you up

i've got thunder in my blood

and lightning in my bones
