Noeline Hofmann - Lightning in July (Prairie Fire) Lyrics

I've been put over the fence just short of a time too many
And I'll tell you why I didn't always hit that hard grass running
After all the way down but I always got up bucking
I always got up meaner than before

Like a rattler on the banks of a green south altar river
Didn't hear me over the west wind shaking out a warning
Ah, they didn't see me coming, must have happened overnight
Lightning in July, prairie fire

Ooh, like a bad sign
I was hiding in plain sight
In the shadows of the thunder, undercover Lucky Strike
I am lightning in July, prairie fire

Been told that I'm out of control for doing what comes natural
Yeah, I sure can make a show but this is far from full display
I'd rather hide my face than do anything half-way
I'm going too far if I'm goin', yeah, I guess I'm unchained

There ain't no man of iron, there ain't no piece of sky
There ain't no unturned mile that I cannot rival
No downpour or a storm I cannot make my own
I am lightning in July, prairie fire

Ooh, like a bad sign
I was hiding in plain sight
In the shadows of the thunder, undercover Lucky Strike
I am lightning in July, prairie fire

White hot, hit the mark, right off of the charts
Rolling that electric sound, flying sparks and stars
Live wire, high rider, blazing guns
Keep your hand on the handle as I'm quick to draw

Like a bad sign
I was hiding in plain sight
In the shadows of the thunder, undercover Lucky Strike
I am lightning in July, prairie fire
I'm lightning in July, prairie fire
Lightning in July, prairie fire
