I was caught

In the middle of a railroad track (Thunder)

I looked 'round,

And I knew there was no turning back (Thunder)

My mind raced

And I thought what could I do? (Thunder)

And I knew

There was no help, no help from you (Thunder)

You've been - thunderstruck!

Rode down the highway

Broke the limit, we hit the ton

Went through to Texas, yeah Texas

And we had some fun

We met some girls,

Some dancers who gave a good time

Broke all the rules, played all the fools

Thunderstruck: Video

Ispirata ad un vero colpo di fulmine, ma non ha niente a che vedere con l'amore: Thunderstruck si riferisce a quando il suo compositore, Angus Young, si trovava in un aereo che venne colpito da un fulmine in volo. Sebbene il videoclip di Thunderstruck raffigura lo stesso Angus che suona l'intro con una sola mano in tapping, nelle esibizioni live (ma anche nella stessa versione da studio) tale pezzo viene eseguito con plettrate alternate. Riportiamo, oltre al testo, la tablatura completa per chitarra.
