| I was born to a gypsy woman with lightnin' crashing all around my crib | |
| Doctor took one look, he started runnin' | |
| He got two steps and lightnin' struck him dead | |
| The wind was howlin' like the devil come knockin' | |
| The house came down, the cradle was rockin' | |
| He called out for a hoodoo man with a rock and roll attitude | |
| He made a sign with his mo-jo hand and the lightnin' done struck him blue | |
| I jumped out of that cradle, grabbed a black cat bone and said"Mama, don't you worry, I was born to storm" | |
| When lightnin' strikes and the walls fall down | |
| I'm a wild cat, baby, when the thunder sounds | |
| When lightnin' strikes, white lightnin' | |
| And double or nothin', baby, pull my switch | |
| I got a six string hammer, gonna scratch this itch | |
| I'm a white witch, honey with long blonde hair | |
| Won't you step into my electric chair | |
| When lightnin' strikes and the walls fall down | |
| I'm a wild cat, baby, when the thunder sounds | |
| When lightnin' strikes, white lightnin' | |
| White, white lightnin', white, white lightnin', white, white lightnin' | |
| Comin' at you tonight, comin' at you tonight, comin' at you | |
| When lightnin' strikes and the walls fall down | |
| I'm a white witch, honey, when the thunder sounds | |
| When lightnin' strikes and the walls fall down | |
| I'm a wild cat, baby, when the thunder sounds | |
| When lightnin' strikes, white lightnin', lightnin' strikes, white lightnin' | |
| Yeah, rock me right outta my crib | |
| Put on the floor, | |
| I almost cracked open my head, woah, baby |
