She comes on like a stone But you don’t know where from she was thrown Like a burning meteor from miles high Looking for a place to land She said "Have you got yourself some sand?" And whatever you’d reply she took as yes
Now she comes out the deep With her newly planted seeds and soon you’re Thrown down on your knees and then you’ll dig And then before you know the weeds are obesely overgrown With all the wild seeds she sows in your sleep
You gotta know you’ll never let her go She's a lightning bolt! Lightning bolt! Lightning bolt!
Always something and never nothing Isn’t that the way we’re taught to be… to be Flipping through the worn out pages And stages when you knew not who to be Yeah Yeah Until the lightning strike sets you free
You gotta know you’ll never let her go She's a lightning bolt! Lightning bolt! Lightning bolt!
The crashing stormy waves erode her shoreline everyday Until the castle of her ways turns to sand She holds her lovely breast as her birds fall from her nest Flying towards the great northwest And with no repair in sight There is no god with such might As you open her world wide with such a view And your death will soon arrive as she finally decides That all her problems, they won’t die with you
A-yeah!… A-yeah!… A-yeah! Never let her go She’s a lightning bolt Never let her go She’s true
She's rock 'n roll She's a lightning bolt Uncontrollable Like you
