Burn These Matches Songtext
von Randy Montana

Call me sometime
Five nine five, one seven six eight
That′s all she wrote
Right below what looks like Kate

What was I thinking even talking to her?
Like a hole in the head, that's the last thing that I need
I better burn these matches in my pocket
Before they burn the hell out of me

Yeah, and I know how this story goes
Got a buddy who′s been down that road
Instead of firing 'em up and throwing 'em out
He let that matchbook hang around

Sure enough, one closing time
That stranger wasn′t hard to find
He dialed her up and the rest is history
I better burn these matches in my pocket
Before they burn the hell out of me


I should′ve left 'em right there
Next to that beer I bought for her
Should′ve said I was spoken for
Before we got out on that floor
And danced the way we were

What was I thinking even leading her on?
I got everything a man could want and need
Better burn these matches in my pocket
Before they burn the hell out of me

Yeah, and I know how this story goes
Got a buddy who's been down that road
Instead of firing ′em up and throwing 'em out
He let that matchbook hang around

Sure enough, one closing time
That stranger wasn′t hard to find
He dialed her up and the rest is history
I better burn these matches in my pocket
Before they burn the hell out of me

Anything a man could want, I got it
I better burn these matches in my pocket
Before they burn the hell out of me

Call me sometime
Five nine five, one seven six eight
