Settin' The Woods On Fire

(álbum: George Jones Salutes Hank Williams - 1960)

Comb your hair and paint and powder,
You act proud and I'll act prouder,
You sing loud and I'll sing louder,
Tonight we're setting the woods on fire,

You're my gal and I'm your feller,
Dress up in your frock of yeller,
I'll look swell, but you'll look sweller,
Setting the woods on fire.

We'll take in all the honkey tonks,
Tonight we're having fun;
We'll show the folks a brand new dance,
That never has been done,

I don't care who thinks we're silly,
You be Daffy and I'll be Dilly,
We'll order up two bowls of chili,
Setting the woods on fire.

I'll gas up my hot rod stoker,
We'll get hotter than a poker,
You'll be broke, but I'll be broker,
Tonight, we're setting the woods on fire,

We'll set close to one another,
Up one street and down the other,
We'll have a time, oh brother,
Setting the woods on fire.

We'll put aside a little time,
To fix a flat or two;
My tires and tubes are doing fine,
But the air is showing through,

You clap hands and I'll start bowing,
We'll do all the law's allowing,
Tomorrow I'll be right back plowing,
Settin the woods on fire...
