Chain Lightnin'
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Chain Lightning
Young lions
Come thundering
A dancin' town
Chain Lightning
Come to strike you down
Brute force
Gun crazy
Come roarin'
Onto foreign ground
Chain Lightning
Are you loosing count
Ramrods
In the walled city
No mercy
When the sun goes down
Chain Lightning
Come to strike you down
Steel jungle
Big trouble
All greener than a dollar bill
Chain Lightning
Strikin' at your heels
Chain Lightnin'
Young lions
Boy, you were never a born to kill
Chain Lightnin'
Oh it's so unreal
