- The title track from the 1963 album Thunder'n Lightnin'. Hoyt sure has a powerful voice and it really shows on this track. The LP features loads of singular vocals in which Mr. Axton holds notes for entire breaths. Not exactly rare, but damn good.

Hoyt did it his way, rugged individualist, great artist, greatly missed
"You people can pray for salvation, but THE BLUES WILL NEVER DIE"
I'll never forget seeing Hoyt in a small concert venue back in the 70s. Powerful dude. Blew the roof off the place. There's a song on this album called Blue Prelude that is just killer. His mother, Mae Axton, co-wrote the Presley hit, Heartbreak Hotel.
Love this it's an edge that's raw,nasty & dirty ain't heard it before just great honesty without polish
Damn! This man was ahead of his time!!
I knew he was a country guy, but I hadn't heard this delightful hillbilly side of him before. Methinks the Dead South needs to cover this great song and bump up its popularity.
Thank you to Papa C my uncle who turned me on to Hoyt Axton..Much Respect from New Orleans Louisiana..☆ Steph..Opal◇
DAD GUM SON! Now this is sum music, yessir!
My brother had this album and I played it by the hour. So good. Thanks.
Powerful stuff!
Mr. Axton should've been better known in 1963......this is about as good as it gets....
Used to see him at The Troubadour.....good times....love Like a Lion in the Winter....duo with Linda Ronstadt
this obviously was not a mainstream pop hit but if you grew up in the Boston area in the early 1960s, you may have heard this song on WBZ which played a lot of folk and blues music and featured a folk show on Sunday nights. Boston was a folk music hotbed back in those days.
this is a dandy.. you and your facial expressions are good.. nice job Hoyt Axton ..very nice.. i love it..
Thanks, I love to Hoyt Axton, his voice were very, very excellent.

Yeah, it was a thundering and thundering and lightening,
You know the day this poor boy was born,
I ain't never known nuthin' but your troubles,
you know your trouble, and your hate and scorn.
You know my daddy, lord, he died in a train wreck,
yeah, my momma, she was born to lose.
You know my middle name is Natural Born Trouble,
yeah, and my last name it is the blues,
oh yeah, my last name it is the blues.
Whaaa-hooooooo
(nice solo)
I see the cold light a-comin' from the window,
yeah, of you warm forty-thousand dollar home.
Oh yeah, but I don't need you people
because the Blues they was meant to roam, oh yeah.
The Blues they was meant to roam.
Well now hunger is my companion,
cold and pain they know my cry.
Oh yeah you people you can pray for salvation,
Yeah, but the Blues don't never die, no no.
But the Blues don't never die.
Cuz it was a thundering and thundering and lightening,
you know the day this poor boy was born.
I ain't never known nuthin' but your trouble,
You know your trouble, and your hate and scorn.
You know my daddy, lord, he died in a train wreck,
You know my Momma, she died a fool.
You know my middle name is Natural Born Trouble, lord.
And my last name it is The Blues. Oh yeah.
And my last name it is The Blues.

Hoyt played the role of the dad in the movie, Gremlins.
Fire on back!
oh my god....I never put two and two together....Thank you for that!!!!!
Leonard Dawson don't forget WKRP
Wow I actually did....lmao
I grew up north of Boston and WBZ radio, a pop music station at the time, played a lot of folk music including this one. I don't think I'd be familiar with the song if they hadn't played it a lot. I'd be curious to know whether pop music stations in other areas of the U-S played it as well.
HE WAS KNOWN AS THE GUSTY ONE. HE'S KNOWN BY ME AS THE GREAT ONE
This song is sampled on B Dolan's new track Natural Born trouble!
My middle name is "Natural Born Trouble". Oh Yeah!!
Jesus Christ, he was good.

Does anyone kno if this is an abner jay cover, or vice versa? Just curious...
Hoyt's version of "House of the Rising Sun" is so much better than The Animals could ever imagine.
Anyone have sheet music for this??
Pretty good abner jay cover but no one do it like abner
Yeah? Does Abner's have a different title?
Nick Cooke my middle name is the blues
he had more talent than johnny cash
Yeah, and now try the same thing after a hit of LSD... :-)
I think I will !
Evan better than elvis
Fun fact hoyt Axtons mother actually wrote The song heartbreak Hotel which was Elvis Pressley's first big hit
