Wanda Jackson - Thunder On The Mountain Lyrics
Thunder on the mountain, and there's fires on the moon
A ruckus in the alley and the sun will be here soon
Today's the day, where I'm gonna grab my trombone and blow
Well, there's hot stuff here and it's everywhere I go
When he was born in Hell's Kitchen, I was living down the line
I'm wondering where in the world Jerry Lee could be
I been looking for him even clear through Tennessee
Feel like my soul is beginning to expand
Look into my heart and you will sort of understand
You brought me here, now you're trying to turn me away
The writing on the wall, come read it, come see what it does say
I've got the pork chops, she's got the pie
Shame on your greed, shame on your wicked schemes
I'll say this, I don't give a damn about your dreams
Thunder on the mountain heavy as can be
Mean old twister bearing down on me
All the ladies in Oklahoma scrambling to get out of town
Looks like a thunder of love, better roll your windows down
Everybody going and I want to go too
Don't wanna take a chance with somebody new
I did all I could, I did it right there and then
I've already confessed, no need to confess again
Thunder on the mountain rolling to the ground
Gonna get up in the morning walk the hard road down
Some sweet day I'll stand beside the King
I wouldn't betray your love or any other thing
The pistols are popping and the power is down
I'd like to try something but I'm so far from town
The sun keeps shining and the North Wind keeps picking up speed
Gonna forget about myself for a while, gonna go out and see what others need
Gonna make a lot of money, gonna go up North
I'll plant and I'll harvest what the earth brings forth
The hammer's on the table, the pitchfork's on the shelf
For the love of God, you ought to take pity on yourself
I've been sitting down studying the art of love
I think it will fit me like a glove
I want some real good man to do just what I say
Everybody got to wonder what's the matter with this world today
Thunder on the mountain, rolling like a drum
Going to sleep over there, that's where the music is coming from
I don't need any guide, I already know the way
Remember this, I'm your servant both night and day

Wanda Jackson Thunder On The Mountain Comments
Kind of blows apart the theory that you need a big fancy studio lots of drugs and a foot ball stadium to create great music. Great music has nothing to do with those things all the rest is just posing.
Woooooow!
I'm gonna get up in the morning , and walk the hard road down
i fucking love this song
Alguien latino que ame a Wanda
2019 and still listen this amazing song byWanda Jackson she's rock this place!😄
Bob would be so proud
I love this.
j'adore
Wow. They took the most drab, miserable, windowless, basement room and set it on fire!
First Lady of Rockabilly still KILLIN IT!
Best video on the net. Love Wanda, love the dressed up musicians in similar twotone. I learned from Joey The Lips in the Commitments that you play better when yo dress good. Here's the living proof of that. Thanks for Jack White and his gang for this awesome performane <3 And I want to that that girl wit the bass in the corner...
Beyonce, Gaga and Miley can’t touch this bad bitch!!!!!
Wooww :O <3
Of course Dylan's original is amazing but Wanda smokes it. Impossible not to dig this sassy lady. A true trailblazer!
Who is Jack White?
Yes 😍
cool:-)
If Jack White is supposed to be 'Mister Authentic' the why the hell couldn't the director have used a real Piano for the shoot? They've got old amps, old Drum set and old microphones. The Keyboard player is on a Hohner Clavinet D6 from the 70s. It's retro but it sure isn't the sound heard on this track. If space and logistics was an issue they could at least have brought in a Wurlitzer 140!
horowizard my guess is that the this is the tour band just using the gear they’d be taking on the road, hence the keyboardist just using his own keyboard
Somebody call the fire department cuz Wanda & Jack just set the house on fire!!
I have a feeling that mr. White watch granny porn😂😂😂😂
i dont mind at all .. pull them dentures out baby doll . lol
Wow!!! This is awesome 😍
Looks like Ted Danson on piano. This song rocks, probably be better without brass. Just sayin'
Steve Reimer are you kidding? The brass is what makes it for me. Jack needs to have horns more often.
Awesome video and performance from the veteran country-rocker here! She blazed the trail for Joan Jett and other female hard rockers!
Fun music here
Wow love this! they look so happy
...life is grand!
Fantastic!
Woa she's amazing
aint ovah yet boys and girls
oh its never over for the GREY FAMILY .13
aint ovah yet boys and girls
Ce Band m'épate... et cette Dame aussi .! Il n'y a pas d'âge.!
quand tu obtiens les droits d'auteur de Bob Dylan.!! Il ne les donnent pas à n'importe qui.! ..J'adore..! yesss.! :)
ooo yaaaa !!! ;)
amo amo amo esta cancion, el video, el performance, todoooo!!!!
u Cut All jack white scenes...
@ Cole Smith. She recorded this at 73 yo. Your argument is invalid
Rubbish. The video was posted 7 years ago.
@Søren Borgquist She is 81 YO now in 2019, So she would've been about 73 when recorded/posted.
Yeeaaahhh... 👏👏👏💃💃
Yeah, baby! Love it...
Dylan is a million times better!
Duh!!!! but jack white is still pretty damn good
Give her a break she just turned 80..See how well Dylan does when he's 80..
any musicians living in Paris who digs what Jack white does, hook up with me if you wana start a band!
great drummer, knock out beat, if nothing else....
1:46 and 1:55 look ma, no hands
This is ... enormous!
Great !
Wanda-ful
It's funny how this is a Wanda Jackson video but the camera focuses on Jack and his performance. He is truly captivating.
Further proof why an awesome performance video is ALL a great song needs.
Maravilha!!! Muito bom, showwww!!!!
fantástico, bom saber que o rock and roll ainda existe !
Quero envelhecer perto disso!Só!Que os anos que me venham, cheguem com algo assim....
@wouterrr this kind of shoes in my coutry (mexico) are calle bi-color shoes
Anybody who know what type of shoes those are? I absolutely love 'em!
Mike Ness calls them two tone shoes.
Wanda is with Nonesuch records!?! Yay! The Black Keys are signed with Nonesuch, so if Jack met them while working there, then my hopes of Jack and the Keys collabarating aren't immpossible!
sparkytrick jack white HATES dan auberbach of the black keys
I read that it Mr. White called Bob Dylan and told him he was producing Wanda Jackson and he wanted her to do a Dylan song and asked for his suggestion. Bob said "Thunder on the Mountain" and it was perfect.
You mean Jack White called Mr. Dylan.
@horowizard Amen brother. Evangelicals do suck though. A kick ass cover!!
Jack is just...a god. Damn it. I think I'm gonna watch this again
