Lyrics
[Verse 1]
(Dum, dum, dum, du-rang)
(Dum, dum, dum, du-rang)
[Verse 2]
See that girl who's smiling so brightly
(Dum, dum, dum, du-rang)
Well, I reckon she's cool and I reckon rightly
(Dum, dum, dum, du-rang)
She's good looking and I ain't frightened
(Dum, dum, dum, du-rang)
I'm gonna show you why they call me Lightning
(Dum, dum, dum, du-rang)
[Verse 3]
(Dum, dum, dum, du-rang)
(Dum, dum, dum, du-rang)
(Dum, dum, dum, du-rang)
(Dum, dum, dum, du-rang)
[Verse 4]
Hey, little girl, who's dancing so lightly
(Dum, dum, dum, du-rang)
My XKE is shining so brightly
(Dum, dum, dum, du-rang)
The noose around us is slowly tightening
(Dum, dum, dum, du-rang)
Oh, show you why they call me Lightning
(Dum, dum, dum, du-rang)
[Verse 5]
(Dum, dum, dum, du-rang)
(Dum, dum, dum, du-rang)
[Verse 6]
(Dum, dum, dum, du-rang)
(Dum, dum, dum, du-rang)
(Dum, dum, dum, du-rang)
(Dum, dum, dum, du-rang)
[Verse 7]
Hey, little girl, who's dancing so lightly
(Dum, dum, dum, du-rang)
(Dum, dum, dum, du-rang)
My XKE is shining so brightly
(Dum, dum, dum, du-rang)
(Dum, dum, dum, du-rang)
[Verse 8]
The noose around us is slowly tightening
(Dum, dum, dum, du-rang)
(Dum, dum, dum, du-rang)
Oh, show you why they call me Lightning
(Dum, dum, dum, du-rang)
(Dum, dum, dum, du-rang)
[Verse 9]
(Dum, dum, dum, du-rang)
(Dum, dum, dum, du-rang)
You can't catch me, I'm as fast as can be
(Dum, dum, dum, du-rang)
(Dum, dum, dum, du-rang)
[Verse 10]
They call me Lightning, I'm as fast as can be
(Dum, dum, dum, du-rang)
(Dum, dum, dum, du-rang)
No, you catch me, no, you can't catch me
(Dum, dum, dum, du-rang)
(Dum, dum, dum, du-rang)
[Verse 11]
Ooh, Lightning
(Dum, dum, dum, du-rang)
