Lightning Does the Work - The Country Music Crew
You know nothin's gettin' done when talk is all you hear
Like someone revvin' up a truck never put in gear
But you don't see a cowboy run his mouth and strut around
He just takes the bull by the horns and throws him to the ground
Takin' care of business not just puttin' on a show
When it gets down to it everybody knows
It ain't the smoke it's the fire that gets the burnin' done
If it wasn't for the bullet nobody'd fear the gun
It ain't the bark it ain't the growl it's the bite that hurts
Thunder's just a noise boys lightnin' does the work
You can talk about the farm or you can plow the ground
Argue with a rusty nail or hammer it on down
You can stand there in the dark cussin' at the night
Or you can just reach out your hand and turn on the light
There ain't no limit in this life to how far you can get
But if you're goin' all the way you gotta break a sweat
It ain't the smoke it's the fire that gets the burnin' done
If it wasn't for the bullet nobody'd fear the gun
It ain't the bark it ain't the growl it's the bite that hurts
Thunder's just a noise boys lightnin' does the work
I've heard thunder talkin' up a storm
Rattlin' my windows and knockin' on my door
But I've seen lightnin' blow a cypress tree in half
The thunder's busy talkin' and lightnin's kickin'
It ain't the smoke it's the fire that gets the burnin' done
If it wasn't for the bullet nobody'd fear the gun
It ain't the bark it ain't the growl it's the bite that hurts
Thunder's just a noise boys lightnin' does the work
Thunder's just a noise boys lightnin' does the work
Ahh yeah
