Love is a burning thing,
can change into a firy ring.
Bound for wild desire
I fell into a ring of fire.

I fell into a burning ring of fire.
I went down down down
and the flames went higher.
And it burns burns burns,
that ring of fire,
that ring of fire.

They say that love is sweet
when hearts like ours meet.
I fell for you like a child.
Oh but the fire went wild.

I fell into a burning ring of fire.
I went down down down
and the flames went higher.
And it burns burns burns,
that ring of fire,
that ring of fire.

I fell into a burning ring of fire.
I went down down down
and the flames went higher.
And it burns burns burns,
that ring of fire,
that ring of fire.

I fell into a burning ring of fire.
I went down down down
and the flames they went higher.
And it burns burns burns,
that ring of fire,
that ring of fire.
And it burns burns burns,
that ring of fire,
that ring of fire.

Lady luck and the four leaf clover
Won't be as hurt as I feel all over
My life for one special occasion
'Til you leave in depth the situation

Well well well standing on shakey ground
Ever since you put me down
Standing on shakey ground
Ever since you put me down

My car got repossessed this morning
Harder times I haven't seen in years
Able to throw me a life preserver
'Cos I'm about to drown in my own tears

Well well well standing on shakey ground
Ever since you put me down
Standing on shakey ground
Ever since you put me down

Well well well standing on shakey ground
Ever since you put me down

Standing on shakey ground
Ever since you put me down
Standing on shakey ground
Ever since you put me down

Well well well standing on shakey ground
Shaking, shakey ground
Standing, standing
Standing on shakey ground

The elevation
Keeps my feet from getting wet
If my head feels light
It must be that the air is thin
I throw my arms up
I don't have very far to fall
I can't get hurt now
Nothing interests me at all
If I'm inflexible I'm right
It comes so easy
But I won't bore you with my insight
I'm dedicated
To anything that I can hate
It's what I'm used to
I need time to commiserate
And if I bore you I don't mind
I'm disagreeable
So tell me something good
And I'll deny it
If I see something I don't mind
I'll never let on
Any good that you might find
I'll simply yawn
I'm not inflexible I'm right
It comes so easy
But I won't bore you with my insight

Every time I'm alone
I always get to thinking
I drive myself insane
I'm all wound in my home
And feeling on the brinkin'
Now I can only say

chorus
That the way I feel tonight
I'm alone and everything is frightening
Cuz I know when you're in my heart you're in my mind
Maybe when everything is settled down and borrowed
Time is repaid in full
I can sleep with a mind
Devoid of pain and sorrow
Now I can only say

chorus
And I know if I'm ever coming by
I don't know if you're ever coming by
And I know if I'm ever coming by
I don't know if you're ever

How young are you?
How old am I?
Let's count the rings around my eyes
How smart are you?
How dumb am I?
Don't count any of my advice

Oh, meet me anyplace or anywhere or anytime
Now I don't care, meet me tonight
If you will dare, I might dare

Call me on Thursday, if you will
Or call me on Wednesday, better still
Ain't lost yet, so I gotta be a winner
Fingernails and a cigarette's a lousy dinner
Young, are you?

Meet me anyplace or anywhere or anytime
Now, I don't care, meet me tonight
If you will dare, I will dare

You came by at two o'clock, you shoulda been by at ten
I said bye at three o'clock and I ain't coming back again
Whoa! How does that grab you, darlin'?
How does that mess your mind?
How does that grab you darlin'?
This girl is leavin' you behind.
(spoken) You smart alec tom cat you!

When the sun goes down and the moon comes up I'm gonna go out and
prowl..Oh ya! Don't come lookin' for your pussy cat, cause I won't be here
no how! Whoa! How does that grab you darlin'?
How does that mess your mind?
How does that grab you darlin'?
This girl is leavin' you behind.

Now you ain't nothin' but an old to cat, runnin' around my house
I'll tell you sometning you old tom cat...you just lost your mouse
Whoa! How does that grab you darlin'?
How does that mess your mind?
How does that grab you darlin'?
This girl is leavin' you behind.
(spoken) There's more than one way to skin a cat you know. Prrrrrrr
Bye Bye

(Verse 1):
I watch the clock a lot
To see where I'm at in the plot
It's like a movie
Starring me
It's all so moving to me
And I don't wanna leave
This walkin' dream
It's up to you
To get me home
I won't go it alone

(Chorus):
In days of olden
Silence was golden
I dreamed of you
Hair on my pillow
Like a weepin' willow
Cool breeze flows through

(Verse 2):
There will be no failure
And I won't be the last
Prima donna
Stuck in a trailer
Blasting Fonda on the news

(Chorus)

{Verse 1}
Well when I was just a little bitty kid
I remember one time Mommy said
Daddy sends you all his love, from 'Frisco Bay
Well I didn't understand till I was grown
Why my Daddy didn't spend a little time at home
Instead of running round the country that way

{Chorus}
Oh I'm looking at the world through a windshield
Seeing everything in a little bit different light
[Watching it fly by me on the right]
I got a sweet little thing that I'm dying to see in Nashville
And I'm down around Dallas and rolling on south tonight

{Verse 2}
Well long strips of rubber that you see
Were burnt off of this rig by the likes of me
And they'll rot along the highways in this land
I'm gonna write my name in this diesel smoke
And let the ones that come along behind me choke
And try to keep this pace I'm setting anytime that they can

{Chorus}

{Verse 3}
Well I push this rig through the sleet and rain
And I've driven through the rough terrain
Of the rockies to the docks of old L.A.
On down that old pacific shore
I swing north and head for Baltimore
Or some place 'bout 2000 miles away

{Chorus}

And I'm down around Dallas and rolling on south tonight
