Lyric Smokestack Lightning

(E. King, J. Van Zant, Gary Rossington, T. Cerney)

I was sittin at home all alone when I heard that telephone ring
And there on the line was a friend of mine sayin he wasn t doin a thing
So I m steppin out on the town tonight to party where the drinks are free
There s a sweet young thing ready and waitin on me

(chorus)
Young and fine, strike you blind
Smokestack lightnin make you lose your mind
She s got looks that kill can fire at will
Smokestack lightnin she s all I need

When we got to the place I got me a taste
I knew she d be good for a game
Dancin out on the floor she was ready for more
She knew all the boys by their names
I said hey sweet thing let me pull your string
Let me take you home
I woke up in a hour with my money and my memory gone.

(repeat chorus)

Young and fine strike you blind smokestack lightnin

(repeat chorus)
