Chain lightnin' lyrics
by 38 Special



On a rainy night
You showed up at my door
Child of the night
Down and forlorn

Still I took you in
It's in the stars above
All girls are made the same
They all need a little love

And the magic of the moment
Exploded with desire
When the time is right
The sparks ignite
And set the night on fire

[CHORUS]
It's chain lightning
Too hot to fight
Hot on the heels
Of a Saturday night
Chain lightning
Out of control
Straight to the heart
And down to your soul
Chain lightning
Heavens above
Another day older
Still searching for love
Chain lightning
Too hot to fight
And it's hotter than hell
In the heavens tonight

I was living hard
I was feeling down and lonely
When toward the boulevard
A limousine moved slowly

And I noticed in the back seat
A lady wrapped in fur
Her eyes burned through me
And mine stared back at her

And I recognized the moment
As I opened up her door
I knew I would regret it
I've been burned before

[repeat CHORUS]

And, lord, it's so hot
When a chain reaction
Is set off with a kiss
And it's so tough
When the satisfaction
Is greater than the risk

When you look in her eyes
And you realize
This time you can't resist
It's chain lightning

Whoa, oh, oh

And the magic of the moment
Exploded with desire
When the time is right
The sparks ignite
And set the night on fire

[repeat CHORUS]

Chain lightning
