But you keep hanging '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 grooving '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 talking
 If I were you I'd start to move
 And tell my story walking
 (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
