Lyrics

Live Wire

They call me the real live wire

The natural born fighter

Ridin' down this long lonely highway

Drivin' straight through

Haven't played in three days and nights now

Yeah I'm long overdue

Get outta my way!

Oh ohh oh

They call me the true heart breaker

Cause I don't take home takers

There's nothing and no one to stop me

From having fun

This must be a misunderstanding

Cause I've loved only one

Get outta my way!

Oh ohh oh

They call me the real live wire

Yeah I'm a red-eye flyer

Flying down this four lane freeway

Gonna catch that last plane

In less than 24 hours

Gonna do it all again

Get outta my way!

Oh ohh oh

I'm a real live wire

Yeah I'm a real live wire
