I Got Caught By The Storm
Written By: Jim Gaffney
Radio Version
Verse 1
Woke up this mornin’ and I’m alone
She emptied my wallet and my keys are gone
Time to face it, she ain’t commin’ back
I get me some coffee and that suit of black
Grab that guitar and throw it on my back
Time to get movin’ on down the tracks
Momma always told me, I was bad to the bone
Must’ve been right, I got caught by the storm
Verse 2
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
Almost made it to the other side
Pockets empty and soul is bare
No one noticed, no time to care
Devil’s commin’, he’s chasin’ me down
Hell’s risin’ on the edge of town
Been runnin’ since the day I was born
Outta time, I got caught by the storm
Oohhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Oohhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Verse 3
Lightning crackles, skies open wide
Red rain fallin’, nowhere to bide
Shadows stretchin’ them clouds up high
Flames sneakin’ up from behind
Ain’t no mercy that I can see
Ain’t nobody’d save a man like me
The wind’s howlin’, my ticket’s torn
Goin’ south now, I got caught by the storm
