Lightnin', I've been struck by lightnin'
Lightnin', my love moves like lightnin'

Now I'm not callin' you a liar
But I know where there's smoke there's fire
People talkin' all over town
Sayin' you're gonna put me down

Lightnin', you'll be struck by lightnin'
Lightnin' bad news moves like lightnin'

Human nature is a funny thing
People will do most anything
Sometimes good and sometimes bad
I better not find out I been had

Lightnin', you'll be struck by lightnin', yeah
Lightnin', bad news moves like lightnin'

Yeah, lightnin'!

(Instrumental)

If your love is really true
Why do I go on chasing you
One day you'll look into my eyes
And you'll see the truth and realize

Lightnin', you'll be struck by lightnin'
Lightnin' bad news moves like lightnin'

Lightnin', oh like lightnin', yeah
