White Lightning Lyrics

No promises, no guarantees
When you come down here you're already on your knees
You wanna ride white lightnin' then sign your name
If you wanna dance with the Devil
You gotta play his way, play the game
You gotta taste that sweetness
'Cause you can't say no
But are you ready for the nightmare when you can't let go
Like a soldier of fortune when the money runs dry
You got rivers of bitter tears in your eyes
You wanna leave but you can't let go
You wanna stop but you can't say no
You'll never laugh about it, you just can't live without it
You had enough but you just want more
You never get what you're lookin' for
You'll never laugh about it, never
You got both ends burning like a mouth to a flame
You're going off the rails like a runaway train

It's a no win situation, there's no way out
And no one will ever hear you
Scream and shout
You wanna leave but you can't let go
You wanna stop but you can't say no
You'll never laugh about it, you just can't live without it
You had enough but you just want more
You never get what you're lookin' for
You'll never laugh about it, never
Run, he's coming to claim you
Run, nowhere to hide away
Run, you dance with danger
Run, oh, you gotta ride the
White lightnin' on a dead end street
White lightnin', where the deadbeats meet
White lightnin', it's a one way ride
White lightnin', oh, there's nowhere to hide
Oh, can you believe me babe?
Such a lonely road you ride
It's not easy when you don't know why
Such a heavy load you hide
You never leave no matter how you try
Run, he's coming to claim you
Run, nowhere to hide away
Run, oh, you dance with danger
Run, oh, you gotta ride the
White lightnin' on a dead end street
White lightnin', where the deadbeats meet
White lightnin', it's a one way ride
White lightnin', oh, there's nowhere to hide
White lightning, can you feel it, can you feel it?
White lightning, it's so dangerous
White lightning, no promises, no guarantees
White lightning
