Lyrics
ROLL, THUNDER, ROLL
Words and Music by Kim York
Roll, thunder, roll
Roll on through the night
Crash, lightning, flash
Burn your fire bright
Soft and pretty was my Linda Mae
But it hurt too much to find them there that way
In a blinding rage I shot that Jezebel
And with another bullet
I sent ?em both to hell
Now there?s a fire at my heels
And a north wind at my back
She was the white light there inside my soul
The Devil painted black
Roll, thunder, roll
Strike your drum tonight
Crash, lightning, crash
Burn your fire bright
I loved that woman, Lord, I loved her true
There was nothing wrong I thought she could do
Now the whipping rain keeps calling out her name
And I just can?t go on living with this pain
Now there?s a fire at my heels
And a north wind at my back
She was the white light there inside my soul
The Devil painted black
