Standin' on my front porch
Grabbed her and I kissed her
Boy (I) was surprised when
I saw her little sister
Lights out
Lights out
I'm glad the lights was out
Sister knows (what) it's all about
What to do when the lights go out
Mother looked at me
She was peepin' through the window
Way she looked at me you'd have thought
I was her sister
Lights out
Lights out
I'm glad the lights was out
Sister knows (what) it's all about
What to do when the lights go out
lovin' on the front porch
took mama's swing
I can almost hear those weddin' bells ring
Lights out
Lights out
I'm glad the lights was out
Sister knows (what) it's all about
What to do when the lights go out
now we('re) married
and we got a little house
had to marry little sister
'cause the lights went out
Lights out
Lights out
I'm glad the lights was out
Sister knows (what) it's all about
What to do when the lights go out
now we('re) married
and we got a little house
had to marry little sister
'cause the lights went out
Lights out
Lights out
I'm glad the lights was out
Sister knows (what) it's all about
What to do when the lights go out
