Upchurch - White Lightning lyrics
[Upchurch - White Lightning lyrics]
Some people go for gold
Then lose sight of their shine
And the sparkle that once was
Gets tarnished in mind
They forget what they was after
They fell off the track
And their vision that was vivid
Gets lost in pitch black
Age starts to take place like
A bomb that keeps tickin'
And they regret not chasing after it
After they had the ambition
The ambition fades away like the
Red on a rose and the regret sucks the life
From everybody I suppose
But my rose ain't red
It won't die but ain't fake but when I die
I'll drown myself in these lyrics I speak
White Lightnin' (Chasin' white lightnin'
Chasing white lightnin')
I ain't no stranger to the rain
I put the sunshine in my grey clouds
Worked hard for where I'm at
So it's easier for me to sleep now
But I don't sleep I walked the roads
From stop sign to street name
No yellow marks on these back roads
So I paint the lines and pave my way
And these framed pics on my wall from
My top tens on these music charts
Represent these small towns you'll never
See with a big heart
And these lyrics in my songs are
The warm spot like a Carhartt
Don't ever forget that one place that made
You that person that you are
Many miles I've roamed wheels turnin'
On that one lane last years boots
Broken soles chasin' one thing
Caught up in the storm of
Life it gets me excited
I guess you could say
I guess you could say that I'm
Chasin' white lightnin'
Chasin' white lightnin'
I'm chasin' white lightnin'
I'm chasin' white lightnin'
Let the rain come down 'til
I can't hear myself think (Self think)
Let the rain come down and drown the
Radio out in this little S-10
I wanna go back sometimes just
Sittin' at Sonic doing nothin'
Chillin' with all my friends on the
Tailgate rollin' up and jammin' somethin'
Yeah a young gun I was one of those
Puttin' Jack D in my Dr pepper
Had stickers all on my back glass of my
Truck it made that shit look better
Just a poor boy dreamin' too big for the
Town that I was raised up in
That's why I represent the underdogs
I want them to know that they can win
Many miles I've roamed wheels turnin'
On that one lane last years boots
Broken soles chasin' one thing
Caught up in the storm of
Life it gets me excited
I guess you could say
I guess you could say that I'm
Chasin' white lightnin'
Chasin' white lightnin'
I'm chasin' white lightnin'
I'm chasin' white lightnin'
Many miles I've roamed wheels turnin'
On that one lane last years boots
Broken soles chasin' one thing
Caught up in the storm of
Life it gets me excited
I guess you could say
I guess you could say that I'm
Chasin' white lightnin'
Chasin' white lightnin'
I'm chasin' white lightnin'
I'm chasin' white lightnin'
(Lightnin', Lightnin')
(White lightnin')
Then lose sight of their shine
And the sparkle that once was
Gets tarnished in mind
They forget what they was after
They fell off the track
And their vision that was vivid
Gets lost in pitch black
Age starts to take place like
A bomb that keeps tickin'
And they regret not chasing after it
After they had the ambition
The ambition fades away like the
Red on a rose and the regret sucks the life

It won't die but ain't fake but when I die
I'll drown myself in these lyrics I speak
