Bill doesn't move, he just spits in the dirt and says "Get your ass out of Waynesville" They unstrap their pistols and soak the fields Throw dynamite into the barn He winks at Billy as he slowly kneels And lights it all with his cigar Well, there's Lightning on the Mountain SongtexteAnd there's fire in the still Now Billy's got a new set of plans And a Colt .45 in his hand He tracked them down just outside of town To a station by a Blueridge mine Tonight that son-of-a-bitch is gonna light his cigar With the help of hellfire Well, there's Lightning on the Mountain And there's fire in the still Now Billy's got a new set of plans And a Colt .45 in his hand And a Colt .45 in his hand Aus Songtexte Mania
