Settin' the Woods on Fire (chatter, false start) / Break Up (version 1, take 4) Songtext
von Jerry Lee Lewis

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

You're my girl and I′m your fella
Dress up in your frock of yello'
You look swell honey, but you′ll look sweller
Settin' the woods on fire

We′ll, takin' in the honky-tonking
Tonight we're havin′ fun
I′ll show the folks a brand-new dance
Never baby has it been done
It didn't look like hay baby everything is a-fine
Gonna sip up for a little wine
Gonna make a little doggone time
Settin′ the woods on fire


All of you here

You could get yourself my hot rod stoker
We'll harder than hot polka
I′ll be broke, and you'll be broker
We′d be settin' the woods on fire
We'll sit close to one another
Up one street and down the other
We will have the time oh brother
Settin′ the woods on fire

We′ll set aside a little time
To fix a flat or two
My tires and tubes are doin' fine
But the air is showin′ through
Hey, set the cloths to one another
Look up on the street, but then and down the other
We will have all time, oh brother
Settin' the woods on fire
