Thunder on the Mountain

Thunder on the mountain, fires on the moon

A ruckus in the alley and the [Incomprehensible] soon

Today is the day, gonna grab my trombone and blow

Well, there's hot stuff here and it's everywhere that I go

Been thinkin' about Jerry Lee, couldn't keep from crying

When he was born in Faraday, I was livin' down the line

I'm wonderin' where in the world could Jerry Lee be

I been lookin' for him clear through Tennessee

Feel like my soul is beginnin' to expand

Look into my heart and you'll sort of understand

You brought me here, now you're tryin' to run me away

The writing's on the wall, come read and come see what I say

He's got the pork chops, I got the pie

He ain't no angel and neither am I

Shame on your greed, shame on your wicked schemes

I know one thing, I don't give a damn about your dreams

Thunder on the mountain, heavy as can be

Mean old twister bearin' down on me

All the ladies in Oklahoma scrambling to get out of town

Looks like a thunder to blow, better roll your windows down

Everybody goin' and I wanna go too

Don't wanna take no chance with somebody new

I did all I could, I did it right there and then

I've already confessed, no need to confess again

Thunder on the mountain rollin' on the ground

Gonna get up in the morning, walk the hard road down

Some sweet day I'll stand beside the King

I wouldn't betray your love for any other thing

The pistols are poppin' and the power is down

I'd like to try something but I'm far from town

Sun keeps shinin' and the North Winds are pickin' up speed

Forget about myself for an hour to see what others need

Gonna make a lot of money, gonna go up North

I'll plant and I'll harvest what the earth brings forth

The hammer's on the table and the pitchfork's on the shelf

For the love of God, you ought to take pity on yourself

I've been sittin' down studyin' love

I think it might just fit like a glove

I wanna real good man to do just what I say

Everybody's got to wonder what's the matter with the world today

Thunder on the mountain, rollin' like a drum

Gonna sleep over there where the music's coming from

Don't need a guide, I already know the way

Remember this, I'm your servant both night and day
