Lyric Lightnin Strikes

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
