Ride the Lightning Lyrics by Warren Zeiders (feat. Travis Barker)
Mama always said I was born on the wild side
One foot in the flames and the other tryin’ to walk the line
Can’t say I never saw it comin’, I could see the warnin’ signs
Mama always said I was born on the wild side
I guess mama was right
‘Cause when the clock strikes midnight
Gonna ride the lightnin’, feel the thunder
Till the darkness pulls me under
Gonna fly on wings of fire
Pray the good Lord lifts me higher
Singin’, “Oh, when they call me home”
Singin’, “Oh, when they call me home”
Gonna ride the lightnin’
There’s a man in a black coat standin’ at a crossroads
With a pen in his hand and a long list of lost souls
They say he flips a coin forged out of fool’s gold
There’s a man in black coat standin’ at a crossroads
I hope he let’s me pass by
When I close my eyes
Gonna ride the lightnin’, feel the thunder
Till the darkness pulls me under
Gonna fly on wings of fire
Pray the good Lord lifts me higher
Singin’, “Oh, when they call me home”
Singin’, “Oh, when they call me home”
Gonna ride the lightnin’, ride the lightnin’, ride the lightnin’
Gonna ride the lightnin’, feel the thunder
Till the darkness pulls me under
Gonna fly on wings of fire
Pray the good Lord lifts me higher
Singin’, “Oh, when they call me home”
Singin’, “Oh, when they call me home”
I’m gonna ride the lightnin’
Gonna ride the lightnin’
