Settin' The World on Fire

[Verse 1]

Well that big red sun was sinkin' slow

That rising had a haunting glow

I could see those heat waves rising off the ground

We were sittin'on go at that old stop sign

Headlights shinin' on the county line

It was do or die, had to get out of that town

Well honey, you said run

We were so young

[Hook]

Tryin' to set the world on fire

Turn the key and spark the wire

Chasin' down a feelin' runnin' on desire

The future was an open road

Gone in a cloud of smoke

Leavin' a trail of flames behind those tires

Just you and me girl, settin' the world on fire

[Verse 2]

Yeah, we were settin' the world on fire

We were blazin' down the road like Kerouac

No time to stop and cover our tracks

We were too damn hot for any one town to hold

Yeah, we burned through a few good years

Then you started looking back in that rear view mirror

Right outside of Reno the trail got cold

You said you'd had enough of this ramblin' love

[Hook]

Tryin' to set the world on fire

Turn the key and spark the wire

Chasin' down a feelin' runnin' on desire

The future was an open road

Gone in a cloud of smoke

Leavin' a trail of flames behind those tires

Just you and me girl, settin' the world on fire

Yeah, we were settin' the world on fire

[Bridge]

Pullin' on a lucky strike 'bout to head west

Ridin' off into God's sunset

It's times like this a always think of you

But honey you know me I'll always be..

[Hook]

Tryin' to set the world on fire

Turn the key and spark the wire

Chasin' down a feelin' runnin' on desire

The future was an open road

Gone in a cloud of smoke

Leavin' a trail of flames behind those tires

Just you and me girl, settin' the world on fire

[Outro]

I'm settin' the world on fire

Yeah, I'm settin' the world on fire
