Lyrics Arlo Guthrie

Arlo Guthrie

Lightning Bar Blues

I don't need no diamond ring

I don't need no Cadillac car

Just want to drink my Ripple wine

Down in the Lightnin' Bar

Down in the Lightnin' Bar

Some people value fortune and fame

I don't care about 'em none

Just want to drink my Ripple wine

I want to have my good time fun

Have my good time fun

I don't need no diamond ring

I don't need no Cadillac car

Just want to drink my Ripple wine

Down in the Lightnin' Bar

Down in the Lightnin' Bar

When I die don't cry for me

Don't bury me at all

Place my livin', laughin', lovin' bones

In a jar of alcohol

Hundred proof alcohol

I don't need no diamond ring

I don't need no Cadillac car

Just want to drink my Ripple wine

Down in the Lightnin' Bar

Down in the Lightnin' Bar
