Lyrics

I told you that I'm Lightning's girl
But you keep hangin' round
If Lightning ever catches you
He's got to put you down
(spoken) About six feet!

Stay away from Lightning's girl
And this part of town
Stay away from Lightning's girl
Or he'll put you down...yeah

Better stop your groovin' round
Another rooster's hen
If Lightning ever catches you
He's got to do you in
(spoken) In about two minutes!

Stay away from Lightning's girl
And this part of town
Stay away from Lightning's girl
Or he'll put you down

Here comes Lightning down the street
While you just stand there talkin'
If I were you I'd start to move
And tell my story walkin'
(spoken) About a hundred miles an hour!

Stay away from Lightning's girl
And this part of town
Stay away from Lightning's girl
Or he'll put you down

Stay away from Lightning's g-i-r-l
Stay away from Lightning's g-i-r-l
Stay away from Lightning's g-i-r-l
Stay away from Lightning's g-i-r-l
