Settin' The World On Fire
Well that big red sun was sinkin' slowThat rising had a haunting glowI could see those heat waves rising off the ground
We were sittin'on go at that old stop signHeadlights shinin' on the county lineIt was do or die, had to get out of that town
Well honey, you said runWe were so young
Tryin' to the world on fireTurn the key and spark the wireChasin' down a feelin' runnin' on desireThe future was an open roadGone in a cloud of smokeLeavin' a trail of flames behind those tiresJust you and me girl, settin' the world on fire
Yeah, we were settin' the world on fire
We were blazin' down the road like KerouacNo time to stop and cover our tracksWe were too damn hot for any one town to hold
Yeah, we burned through a few good yearsThen you started looking back in that rear view mirrorRight outside of Reno the trail got coldYou said you'd had enough of this ramblin' love
Tryin' to the world on fireTurn the key and spark the wireChasin' down a feelin' runnin' on desireThe future was an open roadGone in a cloud of smokeLeavin' a trail of flames behind those tiresFor a while there girl, we were settin' the world on fire
Pullin' on a lucky strike 'bout to head westRidin' off into God's sunsetIt's times like this a always think of youBut honey you know me I'll always be..
Tryin' to the world on fireTurn the key and spark the wireChasin' down a feelin' runnin' on desireThe future was an open roadGone in a cloud of smokeLeavin' a trail of flames behind these tiresSee I'm out here girl settin' the world on fire
I'm settin' the world on fireYeah, I'm settin' the world on fire
