Lyrics

Dose of Thunder

[Verse 1] Goin' down to the pool hall You're lookin' for the eight ball When it comes, when it comes Only want a little, you need a ton [Chorus] Gimme one good dose of thunder Gimme one good dose of thunder [Verse 2] Gimme, gimme, in a hurry Texas added to Missouri When it comes, when it comes Only takes a little 'til you want a ton [Chorus] One good dose of thunder Gimme one good dose of thunder I can feel it Startin' to rumble [Bridge] When it comes, when it comes It only takes a little 'til you need a ton [Chorus] Gimme one good dose of thunder Gimme one good dose of thunder And I can feel it Oh, gimme one good dose of thunder Gimme one good dose of thunder I can feel it Startin' to rumble
