Comb your hair and paint and powder You act proud and I’ll act prouder You sing loud and I’ll sing louder Tonight we’re setting the woods on fire
You my gal and I’m your feller Dress up in your frock of yeller You'll look swell honey, but I'll look sweller Setting the woods on fire
We’ll take in all the honky tonks Tonight we’re having fun I’ll show the folks a brand new dance That never has been done
Hey, look a here baby Everything is fine Gonna sip up a little of wine Gonna make a little doggone time Setting the woods on fire
You’ll gas up my hot rod stocker We’ll get hotter than a poker I’ll be broke and you’ll be broker Tonight we’re setting the woods on fire
We’ll sit close to one another Up the one street and down the other We’ll have a time o brother Setting the woods on fire
We’ll set aside a little time To fix a flat or two My tires and tubes are doing fine But the air is showing through
We’ll sit close to one another Up the one street and down the other We’ll have a time o brother Setting the woods on fire
