Lyrics
HELLFIRE
© Pat Luce Chapman, Bonnie Farris Nicholson, Jeff Severson
VERSE I do my best to toe the line,
behave myself, take just what's mine,
try to remember right from wrong,
don't go where I don't belong.
But in honky tonks I lose control
and country music frees my soul
my heart begins to rock and roll
CHORUS Hellfire's heating up my blood again
Love neon lights and boot-kicking men
Hellfire's got me spinning round and round
Burning me up and I'm melting down - Hellfire!
VERSE 2 I hate my job, it's such a pain,
they treat me like I got no brain.
Call up my girlfriend, say what's new?
She said Let's go dancing at the Blue Bayou.
A cowboy's giving me the eye
I swing my hair and sashay by
Oh I feel that lightning strike --
CHORUS Hellfire's heating up my blood again
love neon lights and boot-kicking men
Hellfire's got me spinning round and round
Burning me up and I'm melting down -Hellfire!
VERSE 3 He tips his hat, says "Howdy Ma'am"
I tremble when he takes my hand
My heart begins to skip and pound
Smiles at me and I'm spellbound.
He plants his hands on my hips
We start to dance and I'm bewitched
Feel the fever in his kiss --
CHORUS Hellfire's heating up my blood again
love neon lights and boot-kicking men
Hellfire's got me spinning round and round
Burning me up and I'm melting down - Hellfire!
TAG I'm melting down
I'm burning up
Hellfire!
Add rebel yells, yee-haws, and some Gretchen Williams-type hey y'alls
