Eight o'clock and it's way past time,
Feelin'good I'm gonna make it tonight.
It's so good when you feel this right
Out here underneath the spotlight.
I'm not lonely, not lonely, not lonely,
'cos I'm doing it right.
You see I put my heart in his hand, I'm a son of thunder,
Underneath the spotlight.
So many fall at the break of day,
But I'm a winner come what may.
'Cos it matters 'bout the way you choose.
Choose him and you just can't lose.
It's not lonely, not lonely, not lonely,
When you're doin' it right.
Why don't you put your heart in his hand, be a son of thunder,
Underneath the spotlight.
Put yourself in my place it would be a disgrace,
Left with egg all over your face.
Would you come back so soon if I sang out of tune?
I could be howlin' at the moon.
You can see me tonight standing under the light,
And I'll be singing a song that's true.
Maybe someday you'll find that you're no longer blind,
And the light will sing for you.
Twelve o'clock and I'm on my way.
Another town, it's another day,
Got a message that you just can't buy.
I've got to tell it and that is why,
I'm not lonely, not lonely, not lonely,
'cos I'm doing it right.
You see I put my heart in his hand, I'm a son of thunder
Underneath the spotlight.
