Hetfield sang on the Gov't Mule song "Driving Rain" with fellow guest Les Claypool, which appears on the compilation album Crank It Up with NASCAR.
Lyric :
Do ya know me?
I'm the driving rain.
And my Momma ....was a hurricane.
Dear old Daddy...'fore he stormed out
high on window pane (??)
Said, "You my one and only boy child,
Call you the Drivin' Rain."
Drivin' Rain
Drivin' Rain
T- t- talkin' 'bout the drivin' rain
Pretty women say it drives them insane
They all want to know me
I'm the drivin' rain
It all started
Back in 69
Yeah, I hit the ground runnin'
Couldn't wait to hear those gears grind
Just like my Daddy
I'm stone cold outta my mind
I've been 'round this world
1-2-3-4- five hundred times
Drivin' Rain
Drivin' Rain
I'm talk-talk-talkin' 'bout the drivin' rain
Pretty women say it drives them insane
They all wanna know me
Yeah, I'm the drivin' rain
(solo)
Do you remember
First time you heard that thunder call?
Wind was moanin'
Creepin' through your bedroom wall
Moonlight splashin'
Enough to make a rich girl fall
Lightenin' crashin'
Make a strong strong woman crawl
Drivin' Rain
Drivin' Rain
T-t-talkin' 'bout the drivin' rain
Drivin' Rain
Drivin' Rain
T-t-talkin' 'bout
T-t-talkin' 'bout the
Drivin' Rain
Drivin' Rain
T-t-talkin' 'bout the drivin' rain
Pretty women say it drives 'em insane
Well they all want to know me
Yeah, I'm the drivin' rain
Hetfield souds great along with Gov't Mule! They should do like this some more.

Shoot. What year is this? Doesn't sound like Hetfield of early 90's, but of late.

Great song, but I simply cannot understand how a song about driving in rain could make its way onto a NASCAR compilation album. :)
