I’m On Fire

Hey little baby is your daddy home
Did he go and leave you all alone
I got a bad desire
Oh, oh, oh, I’m on fire

Hey little baby is he good to you
Does he do the things that you wouldn’t let me do
I can take you higher
Oh, oh, oh, I’m on fire
Oh, oh, oh, I’m on fire

Somebody took a knife now baby
Real edgy and dull
And cut a six-inch valley
Through the middle of my soul

And I wake up at night with the sheets soaking wet
And a freight train running through the middle of my head
I got a bad desire
Oh, oh, oh, I’m on fire
Oh, oh, oh, I’m on fire

Somebody took a knife now baby
Real edgy and dull
And cut a six-inch valley
Through the middle of my soul

And I wake up at night with the sheets soaking wet
And a freight train running through the middle of my head
I can take you higher
Oh, oh, oh, I’m on fire
Oh, oh, oh, I’m on fire
Oh, oh, oh, I’m on fire
Oh, oh, oh, I’m on fire
