LYRICS
[Intro]
Man look at this shit
I know, right? It's crazy
I wish the storm would just blow this motherfucker away
Why you say that?
Serious, man, I hate this fuckin' town
You know Bobby needs you at the job, right?
Man, fuck him
Fuck Bobby? I thought you liked Bobby
I'm gettin' the fuck out of here, man
Okay
Watch
[Verse 1]
Yeah, Tommy just got out of jail (Got out of jail? Got out of jail)
Two months he couldn't make bail (Couldn't make bail? Couldn't make bail)
Here we sit, whiskey bent, freestylin' over cricket chirps
He would spit, then I went, loaded gun, death we flirt
Leave it up to the Baptist church, me and him are scum of the Earth
Feelin' like two millionaires with a hundred dollar net worth
Topic of discussion is that they know nothin'
They didn't find the other twenty pounds hid in the oven
What happened to me and you? We used to go to Sunday School
And we worked Monday 'til Friday, and sometimes Sunday, too
Five-hundred dollar check and that's no disrespect
But I'm a talent, God damn it, you watch, I'm tellin' you
We had it all mapped out, hip-hop 'til we crashed out
I drank 'til I couldn't walk straight, on the front porch where we passed out
Nothin' but trouble, dealin' with troubles over our sorrow
And the clouds followed, we was just like
[Chorus]
Just like lightning in a bottle
Burnin' electric blue
Just like gunshots in the hollow
Echoin' all night through
This is how we shed our problems
Under the southern moon
Just like lightning in a bottle
Burnin' electric blue (Yeah)
[Verse 2]
It's three o'clock in the morning, I got two packs of Parliament Lights and
A dime bag of that 'Bama brick, I just lay in the dark of the night on
The bed of my buddy's truck who got it from his papa back when
He died in a fire rescue and I never asked what happened
We listened to Charlie Daniels, Too $hort and Bob Seger
Sing along to "Night Moves", sippin' on gas station margaritas
Gotta get a good buzz out here, man, nothin' else to do but get high
Put bullet holes in beer cans and talk about how we gonna get by
Some say that dreaming's useless, full of pride and selfishness
Escapin' that mental prison's like climbin' the electric fence
And that's a risk, but a risk I'll take to better with
'Cause through Hell I've been, so success would be just self-defense
I took another swallow, can't share my dream with everybody
And besides, to the factory, I clock in tomorrow
And to my room, I wobble, but the vision I follow
A storm was brewin', we was just like
[Chorus]
Just like lightning in a bottle
Burnin' electric blue
Just like gunshots in the hollow
Echoin' all night through
This is how we shed our problems
Under the southern moon
Just like lightning in a bottle
Burnin' electric blue
Just like lightning in a bottle
Burnin' electric blue
Just like gunshots in the hollow
Echoin' all night through
This is how we shed our problems
Under the southern moon
Just like lightning in a bottle
Burnin' electric blue
[Outro]
Lightning in a bottle
Burnin' electric blue
Lightning in a bottle
Burnin' electric blue
Lightning in a bottle
Burnin' electric blue

![Yelawolf & Shooter Jennings - "Rock & Roll Baby" [MUSIC VIDEO]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/a2yRPa8z9JA/mqdefault.jpg)
Been listening to Yela since 2010 and everyone used to laugh as everyone was into mainstream crap but I knew this artist was unreal, underrated and had a lot to offer. So then came Trunk muzik returns, Love story dropped and some mixtapes like HOTEL. TBF dropped, then TM3 and people finally saw what I saw way back then. Ghetto cowboy is power too! "You and Me" has probably taken over my favourite "American You"...debatable for sure!
Same I was bumping trunk music hard when it dropped.
Same
Same af
Facts! That workplay concert in bham Alabama was 1 of the best shows I've been to!
Yep, Em heard it . He's got a slick tongue and a cool style. I'm glad he 51-50'd out of the sane asylum cuz his fuckin' kinda cray is right up my ally and he put another Bama pin on the map
Ain’t nobody making music like this legend!!!!
Lol plenty of people are lol!
Jim Hendrix I would really like to know because I love music that is not generic
Facts brotha
@@rickyricardo4599 how about jelly roll for starters
@@SLAYBACK5 that's straight facts
Yelawolf at that point of his career where hes making MOVIES to his music, and its soooo fucking empowering.
Yela is the most underrated artist this days
How do you figure that? He's huge
@@offgridas he deserves way more attention "in my opinion"
I can think of a good few hundred people who deserve recognition and get none at all. Check out deca if you want to hear an underrated artist. I agree yella is dope by the way. Just seems to me like he's pretty well recognised for his work, as he should be.
Don't know bout the most underrated but def not reconized
I know. He's been soooo good for so many years too
Stories in every songs, feelings and soul poured into it. Such a great artist.
His story telling is unreal no one does it better
Absolutely agree
Say It again.
“Cause through Hell I've been, so success would be just self-defense” favorite line... that hit hard
Chorus is amazing too - an incredible song and music video all around, lyrics and cinematography
It's rare to see art like this in today's music
*UA-cam is getting real comfortable with these double 15 second no skip ads*
ua-cam.com/video/0slB4FqdNjg/v-deo.html
UA-cam red says hello
UA-cam used to be for the people by the people now it's for the Corporations by the advertisers Buy buy buy🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤨😑🤔😒
If I could I would stab you tube in the face.
It’s a joke, one a while back, next be five minutes lol
I think back to CreekWater, songs with ed sheeran and travis...I think back to Radioactive. Love him or hate him, Yelawolf is an artist that pursues the will to grow and change. Such will is inspiring 🙌
Radioactive?! LMAO
@JOEisBATMAN Joe is NOT batman. That would be Al.
Absolutely! He pushes the boundaries ! He has the heart and guts to show himself to the world in what ever light or dark way he wishes to! Do you know how rare that is!? We are in serious need of more people like him! His music will echo waves of change throughout the coming centuries, I've seen it! Thank you Michael
Absolutely so different and can relate love Yelawolf!
It's ALWAYS Been YOU And ME
🤘🏼💀🤘🏼
This is how we shed our problems
Under the southern moon
@@Paul20661 Just like lighting in a bottle, burning electric blueee
That is my kids 4,6 and 7 year olds favorite song they sing it tho like
It's always been dad and me lol they then argue who it's dad with for the rest of the drive a memory I will never forget
Love that one💜
This man doesn't get the credit he deserves...so much talent, sings real life shit, and let's not forget those looks and style 🖤🖤🖤🔥🔥🔥👊
I love this. Me and homie used to hang and drink beers till 3am...smoke pot and cigarettes, etc. I went through a lot to better myself. I still got a bit to work on, but I'm getting there for sure. I love your movement dude..you're a true inspiration for me!
Yelawolf is truly original. Shit hits the soul ⚡️🍼
ua-cam.com/video/rSeIL5VT0N8/v-deo.html
Thats right
⚡🤘🏼✨🤘🏽⚡
Le caca frappe l'âme. Bah bien sûr ! 😂
Yup
Best rapper !
HE IS THE BEST IN THE WORLD RIGHT NOW 💯
YES, STRONGLY AGREE, BEST CONSISTENT/UNDERRATED AND SKILLFUL RAPPER; PLUS ALWAYS PUSHING THE BAR.....HANDS DOWN!!
ua-cam.com/video/rSeIL5VT0N8/v-deo.html
Best rapper in the world
Мишаня)
Yela is one of the few hiphop artists left that can tell a vivid story in his songs.
2024 still listening
When did you stop
That’s the one of the most touching song from Yela! Jeeeez! I’m a huge fan since 2011, when my brother showed me „Let’s roll”. It was love at first sight :) Greetings from Poland
I've been listening to YelaWolf since 2011 and I can say without a doubt that he has written amazing hooks before but Lightning is his best ever. The melody, the lyrics, the poetry. This is songwriting at it's best. As far I'm concerned YelaWolf is one of the greatest artists/songwriters of all time.
@@jasondarger8637 Even better. He's in my top 5. Although I'm not sure if Wolf would put himself over his influences like Johnny Cash cause if he's the greatest that's what that would mean.
Perfectly composed song. From the beat, to the lyrics and such a beautifully sung chorus! Yela is so beyond almost every artist out there...PERIOD.
Can't believe Yela gave an spoiler of Mudmouth here, the song in the credits is slowed down snippet of Light as a Feather. That's awesome
Great ear, brother. I never even listened through until I saw your comment. That is DOPE.
"Light As a Feather" also was in "Ghetto Cowboy" video. And "Rocks at Your Window" in "Still Ridin"
“Hot” was also in the Ghetto Cowboy video at the very end
And “ Dope” is at the end of Still Riding video
Yelawolf, sending love from the UK to you and your family!! May God look after you and yours!! 🙏🏻
Love and light back to you and yours 💙⚡️
@@509variniaannazure5 💜🙏💜
Cinematography is amazing on this, usually when people go independent quality control suffers. I am glad your releasing these videos a year later after we all have digested the songs. Makes the videos even more appealing, cant wait for MUDD MOUTH! #SLUM
Thanks Stylez!! We worked hard and are super proud!!
Agreed!! The visuals are on point! Hats off to everyone involved in this video 🌪️🌪️🤘🤘
Salute
@@keithotmfc no doubt, I run a network of some top ranking hip hop and pop playlist on UA-cam. Not sure how to contact yela but I could help promote this video. Right now I have worked with multiple major label's and indie labels. I could get it 100k, to a million more views over the course of 6 months, depending what they wanna do, all organic traffic.
The color story can literally make or break a project. I am honored and humbled to have been a part of this truly talented crew who are at the top of their game!
That nod to Eminem's Superman though at the start. So good
Love it 💯🔥
What u said a music is back saying good fuck music
Time stamp?
@@conorjt3738 8 months later... uh 1:22 - 1:30 timeframe. and around the 1:30 - 1:40 time in Eminem's Superman
Yela is one of the top 5 to ever do it, hes going to make it so they cant keep not talking bout him, or giving him the respect he deserves. gunna make them so they cant not recognize him for the talent he displays every cut.....
This man is just such a unique artist.
Like your Dog I got a old English bulldog Baxter
Slumerican for life!
The little boy at the end releases the fireflies and keeps his eye on just one of them even though they're several flying around, could mean that the lighting bug represents hip hop and Yelas career. Out of all the inspirations he's had, he kept that eye on that one goal, to capture the lighting in the bottle and follow your dreams no matter where you come from or what you go through.
Just my 2 cents. Keep it Dusty folks!
That was so profound and I appreciate that. I don’t think that’s a reach. Spot on. Bravo. That’s why music is so powerful. Brings us together. We need that now, more than ever. Yela is one of a kind. To steal a phrase from Joyner, “give them a rose while they’re still here”. Thanks.
Lol. Oh its infinitely more deep brutha... Infinitely.
Anyone else binging Yelawolf videos in 2021?
Yela is an unique artist, i hope he keeps being himself forever! He found his own lane and is doing very well.
So proud of this road we’re on ! Nothing but up from here! Mad Respect to Wayne and everyone else who was a part of this music video and the latest album!
WHO ELES IS READY FOR THE NEXT ALBUM! Mudmouth! 🔥
Ready 💯💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Top 5 MC on my list!
Great lyrics, dopest hooks and choruses and almost always perfect beats!!
Man, Yela is a blessing!
Everyone country wants out, everyone that's out wants the country. Life was love💘
Yelawolf, much respect from Russia. Best rapper alive
Seeing that "Copyright 2020 Slumerican" is awesome! Way to go independent and KILL IT ⚡️⚡️🤘🏻🤘🏻
💯💯💯
Totally
When Yela sings, dude has the voice of an angel.
Yelawolf be killing every beat that gets thrown at him
Killing it
Heard yela on a slim thug track singing a hook, immediately infatuated with his voice looked been hooked since. The vision, rhythm, message, all of it. He is the complete package!
I RUUUN, THE STREETS ALL NIGHT AND DAAAY
Another Bad A** Yela hook on this song, check it out man -->
Lookin’ For a Change by Alex King ft Sonny Bama & Yelawolf
(Wolfs verse real as fuck on this too and the flow 🔥)

more popular one
Sleep at Night by Rittz ft Yelawolf

A gun plus a mask by Juicy J ft Yelawolf 🔥🔥🔥
that rock n roll style verse spoke to my soul 😂🤘🏻
this album honestly saves me everyday! i’ve followed your music for years now! always outdoing it!
2022 and we are still craving more yela!
Every fucking day 😌
*and then we have that garbage mainstream "rap and hip hop".. it's backwards, Yella deserves so much more clout and recognition!*
I actually believe that mainstream is supposed to be garbage. It makes it a little more special.
Yela doing fine.
Best ish on trending right now. Yela’s a beast.
@Chris Hein facts
Straight Facts
I've underrated you, mister Yelawolf.🙌 just awesome, man. You're a true artist in my book.🙏
Anyone else have one of those moments where they can no longer sing a song that been stuck in your head for daysssss so you come to UA-cam to watch the video and blast the hell out of the song just to see if any other thing comes to mind? Like I have to be hearing this on repeat for a reason…. Bc like all his music… there’s messages everywhere. Everything means something. Every single word.
BAM.
Sitting here sad….. “what happened to me and you… *chorus* “
DAMN.
More tears.
I’ve been listening to Yelawolf for about a year now and his music is powerful! He is a true goat! He is so underrated! His music has helped me get through a lot in life. It helped me when my dad was in horrible condition and while my dad,brother,and grandfather are suffering from Covid-19. It showed me to be strong and look at the positive side of stuff! Thank you man! Proud to be a Slumarican!
Hello super fan ❤
Nice meeting you Fan Thanks for supporting my Dream and Career May God Almighty continue to bless you always. How’re you doing today?
Damn wolf is lookin like Bob Dylan, Jim Morrison, and Johnny Cash had a baby.
I love his music. I found him about six years ago living in my own house and recently have met someone new and the first time I met this person they had this playing on the radio in their room knew that in there I was the one.
fuckin nice… #slumerican
This music make ya feel better on a rainy day
Thank you!! This is my favorite song off the Ghetto Cowboy album!!
Man Yela's chorus always gives u those goosebumps. This man is pure amazing.
Damn this man so talented. Just when you forget about these awseome songs he reminds you they are there.
Yelawolf is dominating 2021
Can't nobody on this Earth steal or copy Yelas flo. You just can't touch it. The real goat!
He is so under rated. He is an amazing artist. He proves that time and time again. I can relate to his music. I feel his words.
WOLF IS TOP 5 EVER OVERALL 💯
Ain't no doubt bout it
Love from INDIA 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
@@nursingprofessional951 🙏
@an Indian dude who likes to listen to rap Right though🔥🔥🔥
Yela on
🔥🔥🔥🔥
You on crack
@E Price top 90
Damn more than a million views in 1 day !!! Forever my number one ... this is one of my favorite songs by Yela off his album GhettoCowboy.
I've listened to Yelawolf for years, but his documentary A Slumerican Life gave me a whole new love for him.
Yelawolf is the man! He never releases anything bad. Everything he does is so dope! 🔥 ⚡
Hands down my favorite song on the album. I'm glad that I got visuals for it. That intro working it's way creepily into the verse and that calming hook... they go together beautifully.
Words cannot describe how much I love this track. Even this video kicks ass. 100% Yela
Yelawolf=Deep!
Now we work monday to friday, sometimes on sunday too. That sounded like Eminem’s Superman.
Listen !
I thought the same thing.
Dang. I realised it had a certain similarity when I heard it for the first time.
Well he was discovered by Eminem so only natural that his music will be similar
@@ChefPew mmm dunno, Dre discovered Em, Em discovered 50 etcetc.
Yela so underatted. Wish he n Calhoun didnt fall off that coulda been sick feature
Love all this man's music he's a master at the craft!! I think he's one of the most under rated artist in hip hop just cuz he has his own original sound! And I see a lot of haters saying he's this and that! You listen to one track of his and you start to love his sound! He's by far my favorite artist and I dont see that changing he's got such a wide variety of sounds and songs that you never get bored cuz the songs all kinda sound the same from most artists i find but Yelawolf can doit all slow, fast, melodic and just hard-core country with that down south flavor that just keeps you in such a good mood! Hes got songs for all moods thats one of the main reasons I think he's the best rapper under Em!🤬💯
🏴☠️🏴☠️™️ TRUNK MUSIC ™️ COULDN'T HAVE SAID IT BETTER MYSELF BUT JST AS GOOD AS EM IN MY OPINION 🏴☠️🏴☠️ SLUMERIÇAN 🏴☠️🏴☠️
BETTER than Em!!
Yela isn't just a rapper but a artist he makes such chatchy,smooth chorus
I love the way Yela tells a story in his songs. I'm usually more for hardcore hip hop, but I can happily settle for this stuff too
Dope chorus 😍
Definitely
100%
ua-cam.com/video/mFU5r8nPRqs/v-deo.html ????
ua-cam.com/video/2aG6lCCk8HE/v-deo.html this the most offensive music video of 2020!!
totally agree!
Just like 🌩 lightning in a bottle... this is how we shared our problems. Back when we listened to Bob Seiger . Some say dreaming unless... I say ... our eyes are open ... day dreaming of lives we used to live. Wake up brothers and sisters
One of my favs makes me think of some great memories from my childhood
Cant wait for mudmouth in february! Support independent artist!! Slumerican
Slumerican 4 Life! That was a badass cut. Slum Mafia!
This guys music gets me through a lot of days. Sometimes I think it's just who he is that does it because he's so genuine in his rapping skills and storytelling. I love the one lightning in a bottle and I love the other video with the wolf
I had a pretty rough last few days thinking about my life and where I’m supposed to go from here.. I was out walking my hound dog just earlier and nearly had a mental break down, I had to stop and sit on a park bench while my pup sat beside me wondering what the f*ck was going on.. I cut the walk short right there and started my journey back home as it was getting dark.. some days it’s just extra hard to find the Will to live. I’ve been trying to stay away from boozing and getting high. I can’t tell you how much music like this helps. My heads feeling a little more clear and now I feel like I’m ready to face another day. One day at a time.. just hope my pup has the patience for me, his names Merle and he just might be my blessing in disguise.
Yelawolf is the true goat
Yelawolf is one of the most amazing artists going today. I will always loo up to this man so much. He has influenced my life more than he will ever know.
Yelawolf diffidently my top 5 List. Southern asf
Never enough widescreen with a yelawolf hit
Best rapper of this generation 🔥🔥
Yelawolf is literally the most underrated rated after Royce it’s just sad...
Legends live in the minds of the people. Sell outs and pop rappers are just popular. Remember that.
@@anthonydull873 that’s hella hard
If you were growing up in the early 2000s in Alabama the second verse is basically the story of your life I know I’m not the only oneThat felt that to the core
Yelawolf the man of music, dose like no other,
Definitely one of the most underrated artists! Yelawolf is one of my favorites.
I love Yelawolf so much ❤️ his music fits the mood any place, anytime.
Anyone else notice how much this song shares with Stan?
Yelawolf is an artist because he creates art.
Yelawolf is my favorite artist, can’t wait for a new album! Proud Slumerican!
This track is Amazing and the Chorus hits mane.. I'm from the hollow. The Southern backwoods where Life is Peaceful 💯
One of the best lyricist. One of the most underrated rappers in the world. Cherish all these real ass rappers who spit real shit. Going to miss when music like this fades away.
Caskey is bringing back his spiritual fire
Mad respect to you, man! This tune is touching my soul.
That part " U watch im tellin you " the way he says that reminds me Eminem - Superman.. lets go champ
Native Son is on the horizon...... Everybody Up!!!
IMO best live artist out there
I love how this is blowing up
before it's even released.
I'm a simple man, YelaWolf releases a new vid, I click. Never disappointed.
"Singing Bob Seger and too short shooting holes in beer can contemplating what we're gonna do" he's singing my memories! Rock on Yelawolf! I lose myself in your music. Southern love flows through my veins cajun blood pumps with every heartbeat. I've never related more. So glad you and your friends share your music with the world
This Prove's Yeller
Is Thei True King Of Rap/Country Rap
Slumerican 4 LiFe
One of my favorites hooks on the album! Great production on the video!!! ⚡⚡⚡
This speaks to my soul and my demons in the most PERFECT way!!
Thank you Yela!!!
This music never gets boring
Anyone still bumping?
Unfortunately
