Lightning, lightning flash so bright lighting e'ery corner of night Thunder, thunder from the sky rock me from my beddie bye Rain drop, rain drop falling down saturate the thirsty ground Windy wind whipping around tossing things west now eastbound Tree branch, tree branch waving free knock out electricity Darkness, darkness fills the house causing me to gripe and grouse Flicker, flicker candlelight the time I wish you'd expedite Onward, onward toward the hour when there once again be power Kitty, kitty in the corner why so sad why play the mourner? Soon oh soon this storm will pass ending your desperate morass Lightning, thunder, rain and wind I wish your bane I could rescind
