Lightnin'

Lightnin'
They say it never strikes twice in the same place
Lightnin'
Then why are you back here staring me in my face

I can't believe you're back again
Talkin' 'bout how you wanna be my friend
I was strung out on you
And boy you know it's true
No other lover could do me like you do

I say
Lightnin'
Lightnin'
Strike!
(Do it to me once shame on you)
(Do it to me twice shame on me)
Yeah, Lightnin'
Lightnin'
Strike!
(Do it to me once shame on you)
(Do it to me twice shame on me)

Lightnin'
They say it never strikes twice in the same place
Lightnin'
Then why are you back here staring me in my face

You had my nose open so wide
That a train could pass thru without touchin' the sides
Had no idea eyes had so many tears
'Til I saw you holdin' her so near

I say
Lightnin'
Lightnin'
Strike!
(Do it to me once shame on you)
(Do it to me twice shame on me)
Hey, Lightnin'
Lightnin'
Strike!
(Do it to me once shame on you)
(Do it to me twice shame on me)

Lightnin'
They say it never strikes twice in the same place
Lightnin'
Then why are you back here staring me in my face

The moral to this story is
Don't be blinded by the passion in his kiss
He'll be contrary
His love is temporary
Pain's the biggest word in his vocabulary

I say
Lightnin'
Lightnin'
Strike!
(Do it to me once shame on you)
(Do it to me twice shame on me)
Lightnin'
Lightnin'
Strike!
(Do it to me once shame on you)
(Do it to me twice shame on me)

You're back in a flash
Uh, is it me you want baby, or is it my cash
Or did you happen to hear about my success
Yeah, climbin' back up the second time was such a test
(Do it to me once shame on you)
(Do it to me twice shame on me)
Uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, uh, don't come thru the door
Love don't love here anymore
(Do it to me once shame on you)
(Do it to me twice shame on me)

I used to be your friend
But that was, way, way, way, way, way back when
So, get in the wind, get in the wind, get in the wind
Get in the wind, get in the wind

Yeah baby, you were good
I don't know if you were that good though
What is this, "find a fool bump his head week"?
Nah, baby

I can't take no more misery
Bye bye, bye, bye, bye, bye-bye, bye, bye, bye, baby

Do it to me once shame on you
Do it to me twice shame on me
(Do it to me once shame on you)
(Do it to me twice shame on me)

I like the way you hit me band say
(Do it to me once shame on you)
(Do it to me twice shame on me)
Hit me
Two times
(Do it to me once shame on you)
(Do it to me twice shame on me)
Said make it funky
