Locked up in the classroom waiting for the fight
Down to the schoolyard knocking the gate
Into the alley meet up with the boys
Waiting for the weekend to make a little noise

Thunder is strong, lightning is death
Kicking the girls and its starting to blast
Sweeter than the heavens and the fate means stumble
But its saturday night when heavy rock was born

[Chorus:]
Like thunder and lightning
God d___, its so exciting
It hits you like a hammer
God d___

It was saturday night I was ready for the dance
My girl walked in holding another guys hand
He stood six foot six he looked two miles wide
I was taking it easy till he took her outside

I was madder than hell and fit to burn
This guy would break a leg before but now hes got to run
Standing in the corner giving him a thrill
You can keep your lover honey, but hes got to pay the bill

[Chorus:]
Like thunder and lightning
God d___, its so exciting
It hits you like a hammer
God d___

[SOLO]

Well the place started rocking it was saturday night
I was dressed to kill I was feeling alright
Alright in the middle of the night
I wasn't ready for a rumble but the mood was right

When he got up to leave
I stood in his way
I said love thats the price you have to pay
In the doorway up against the wall
When they play a heavy record then Im gonna have a ball

[Chorus:]
Like thunder and lightning
God d___, its so exciting
It hits you like a hammer
God d___

[SOLO]

[Chorus:]
Like thunder and lightning
God d___, its so exciting
It hits you like a hammer
God d___

We started to rumble and stumble
It is we were rocking and rolling and rolling and tumbling
I fumbled and started to win
When the greater than wicked then I hit him again

I hit him again and I couldnt hit him anymore
My head was all black and blue and my jaw was sore
Sweeter than the heavens and like a frightening stumble
It was saturday night when heavy rock was born
