Lightnin` Strikes Lyrics

LIGHTNIN' STRIKES

 Lou Christie

 (Lou Christie - Twyla Herbert)

 

 Listen to me, baby, you got to understand

 You're old enough to know the makings of a man

 Listen to me, baby, it's hard to settle down

 Am I asking too much for you to stick around

 

 Every boy wants a girl

 He can trust to the very end

 Baby, that's you

 Won't you wait but 'til then

 

 When I see lips beggin' to be kissed (Stop!)

 I can't stop (Stop!) I can't stop myself

 (Stop! Stop!)

 

 Lightnin's striking again

 Lightnin's striking again

 

 Nature's takin' over my one-track mind

 Believe it or not, you're in my heart all the time

 All the girls are sayin' that you'll end up a fool

 For the time being, baby, live by the rules

 

 When I settle down

 I want one baby on my mind

 Forgive and forget

 And I'll make up for all lost time

 

 If she's put together fine and she's readin' my mind (Stop!)

 I can't stop (Stop!) I can't stop myself

 (Stop! Stop!)

 

 Lightnin's striking again

 Lightnin's striking again and again and again and again

 

 Lightnin's striking again

 Lightnin's striking again

 

 There's a chapel in the pines

 Waiting for us around the bend

 Picture in your mind

 Love forever, but 'til then

 

 If she gives me a sign that she wants to make time (Stop!)

 I can't stop (Stop!) I can't stop myself

 (Stop! Stop!)

 

 Lightnin's striking again

 Lightnin's striking again and again and again and again

 Lightnin's striking again and again and again and again
