Well, did you ever hear the legend of Red Lightning Blues Well, I'm here to tell you that the story is true Yeah, he's the phantom hotrod running in this race He'll be peeling down the haunted highway He's going down the road like a hurricane Get out of the way, hey, hey, it's Red Lightning Blues He's gonna give it the run, run it into the ground Drag in like a dog who would dirty the town He goes by the name of Red Lightning Blues Yea, he's running red lights in the land of the lost
Burning all the bridges before he gets crossed I saw him peeling out at the scene of the crime Trying to beat the Devil to the finish line If you gotta fast car and you're looking for kicks You better stay clear of route six sixty-six We collided where the road turns into the sky Now I'm running for my life until the day that I die Hey, hey, Red Lightning Blues He goes by the name He goes by the name Red Lightning Blues Hey, hey, Red Lightning Blues
