Feels Like Lightning

Little rooster out on a fence post crowing Here comes the storm like a big rig rolling Here comes the storm like a big rig flying Heavy, loaded down, fit to spit the sky in And oh, my little heart's in trouble Feels like it just might explode Why do they call it love when Oh, it feels like lightning? Out in the open and the wind starts blowing I don't know any which way I'm going I don't know any which way I'm bound I used to be laughing but I ain't laughing now And oh, my little heart's in trouble Feels like it just might explode Why do they call it love when Oh, it feels like lightning? With cherry blossoms sweet with smoke And Venus blazing above the oak I thought I knew all that there was to know With the bluebirds flying high above In Godless heaven, wherever that was And the sun was on the face of the buffalo Out across the fields are the thunderheads gathering Clouds all turned to the color of a cavern Dust devils spinning around a hollow sound They used to be laughing but they ain't laughing now And oh, my little heart's in trouble Feels like it just might explode Why do they call it love when Oh, it feels like lightning? This ain't any kind of storm for chasing Going to catch up to you now slow or racing It's going to catch you to you now by and by Going to make you feel good, going to make you cry And oh, my little heart's in trouble Feels like it just might explode Why do they call it love when Oh, it feels like Oh, my little heart's in trouble Feels like it just might explode Why do they call it love when Oh, it feels like lightning?
