Smokestack Lightning lyrics

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

Young and fine, strike you blind

Smokestack lightnin', make you lose your mind

She's got looks that kill, get 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 an hour

With my money and my memory gone

Young and fine, strike you blind, they call her

Smokestack lightnin', make you lose your mind

She's got looks that kill, get fire at will

Smokestack lightnin', she's all I need

Young and fine, strike you blind

Smokestack lightnin'

Young and fine, strike you blind, they call her

Smokestack lightnin', make you lose your mind

She's got looks that kill, get fire at will

Smokestack lightnin', she's all I need

Smokestack lightnin'

She's all I need

Smokestack lightnin'

Oh, she's all I need

Smokestack lightnin'

Ooh, smoky baby

Smokestack lightnin'
