At night I wake up with the sheets open wide.
At night I wake up with the sheets soaking wet.
At night I wake up with the sheets soaking wet
And a freight train runnin' through the middle of my bed.
At night I wake up with the sheets soaking wet
And a freight train runnin' through the middle of my head.
At night I wake up with the sheets soaking wet
And a freight train runnin' through the middle of my pants.
At night I wake up with the sheets soaking wet
And a freight train runnin' through the middle of my head.
Hey little girl it's a dirty morning
Ooh, ooh, Elmer Fudd.
Hey little girl is your daddy home
Ooh, ooh, I'm on fire.
I'm a long john daddy in the USA
I'm a long gone daddy in the USA
Oh, Oh...Elmer Fudd
Oh, Oh...I'm on fire
Oh, Oh...Open fire
Oh, Oh...I'm on fire
Oh-oh-oh, walk on fire.
Oh-oh-oh, I'm on fire.
Ohhh almond fudge
Ohhh I'm on fire
Sometimes it's like someone took a knife, baby, edgy and dull,
and cut a six-inch valley through the middle of my toe
Sometimes it's like someone took a knife, baby, edgy and dull,
and cut a six-inch valley through the middle of my soul
Sometimes it's like someone took a knife, baby, edgy and dull
And cut a six-inch valley through the middle of my skull.
Sometimes it's like someone took a knife, baby, edgy and dull
And cut a six-inch valley through the middle of my soul.
Sometimes it's like someone took a knife, baby, edgy and over
And cut a six-inch belly through the middle of my soul.
Sometimes it's like someone took a knife, baby, edgy and dull
And cut a six-inch valley through the middle of my soul.
Sometimes it's like someone took a knife, edge end old
And cut a six inch valley through the middle of Moscow.
Sometimes it's like someone took a knife, edgy and dull
And cut a six inch valley through the middle of my soul.
I can take the fire
I can take you higher
Dwight Twilley Band's, "I’m on Fire"
Got your chokehold on the table
Got your joker on the table
With a touch that I won’t kiss
With a touch of just one kiss
