Lyrics for Song: Thunderstruck
Lyrics for Album: Thunderstruck
(Thunder) I was caught
In the middle of a railroad track (Thunder) [...of a lightning attack]
I looked round
And I knew there was no turning back (Thunder)
My mind raced
And I thought what could I do (Thunder)
And I knew
There was no help, no help from you (Thunder)
Sound of the drums
Beatin' in my heart
The thunder of guns
Tore me apart
You've been - thunderstruck
down the highway
Broke the limit, we hit the town
Went through to Texas, yeah Texas
And we had some fun
We met some girls
Some dancers who gave a good time
Broke all the rules, played all the fools
Yeah, yeah, they, they, they blew our minds
I was shakin' at the knees
Could I come again please?
Yeah the ladies were too kind
You've been - thunderstruck, thunderstruck
Yeah yeah yeah, thunderstruck
Yeah
Oh, thunderstruck, yeah
Now we're shaking at the knees
Could I come again please?
Thunderstruck, thunderstruck
Yeah yeah yeah, thunderstruck
Thunderstruck, yeah, yeah, yeah
Said yeah, it's alright
We're doing fine
Yeah, it's alright
We're doing fine
(So fine)
Thunderstruck, yeah, yeah, yeah,
Tunderstruck, thunderstruck, thunderstruck
Whoa baby, baby, thunderstruck
You've been thunderstruck, thunderstruck
Thunderstruck, thunderstruck, thunderstruck
You've been thunderstruck |
Thunderstruck
"Thunderstruck" is a song that started as a warm-up. The track, by AC/DC, was analyzed by American Songwriter, which noted that what is now one of the most iconic guitar riffs in rock history "started off from a little trick that I had on guitar," according to guitarist Angus Young. Young explained: "I played it to Malcolm [Young] and he said, 'Oh I've got a good rhythm idea that will sit well in the back.' We built the song up from that." It is a song that was born from a simple idea and became a rock anthem. The lyrics open with a vivid image: "I was caught / In the middle of a railroad track." It is a song about being caught in a moment of chaos, and about the thrill of surviving it. It is a song that is built for live performances, and it has become a staple of AC/DC's shows. What stays with me is how the song turns a warm-up into a legend. It is a song about the power of a great riff, and it is delivered with a confidence that is hard to ignore.
