Yeah, smokestack lightning
Don't you hear me callin'?
Don't you hear me callin'? Well, well

Tell me where did you go last night?
I gotta know who you been with

Let me go for a ride, pretty baby, you know
Stop your train, I gotta ride with you
Gotta ride with you

Don't you hear me callin'? Well, well

You gotta stop your train
Let me go for a ride, gotta ride with you
Stop your train and ride with you, now
