Settin' The Woods On Fire

(album: A Satisfied Mind - 1957)

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 honky 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'll 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 sit close to one another up one street and down the other
We'll have us 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 laws allowing
Tomorrow I'll be right back plowing, setting the woods on fire
