Standin' on the front porch 
I grabbed her and I kissed her 
Boy was I surprised 
When I heard your little sister 

Lights out, lights out 
Glad now that the lights went out 
Sister knows what it's all about 
What you do when the lights go out 

Mama looked at me 
She was peeping through the window 
When she looked at me 
Boy you think I was a sinner 

Now I'm on the front porch 
Sitting on the swing 
I can almost hear 
Them wedding bells ring 

Now we married 
And we got a little home 
A cute little sister 
When the lights go out
