"Settin' The Woods On Fire" lyrics
"Settin' The Woods On Fire"
(originally by Hank Williams with His Drifting Cowboys)
Comb your hair and paint and powder
You sing loud and I'll sing louder
You be proud and I'll be prouder
Tonight we're settin' the woods on fire
You're my gal and I'm your feller
Dress up in your frock of yeller
I'll look swell but you'll look sweller
Settin' the woods on fire
We'll take in all the honky tonks
Tonight we're havin' fun
We'll show the folks a brand new dance
That never has been done
I don't care who thinks we're silly
You be daffy and I'll be dilly
We'll order up two bowls of chili
Settin' the woods on fire
I'll gas up my hot rod stoker
We'll get hotter than a poker
You'll be broke but I'll be broker
Tonight we're settin' the woods on fire
We'll sit close to one another
Up one street and down the other
We'll have a time oh brother
Settin' the woods on fire
We'll put aside a little time
To fix a flat or two
My tires and tubes are doin' fine
But the air is showin' through
You clap hands and I'll start bowin'
We'll do all the law's allowin'
Tomorrow I'll be right back plowin'
Settin' the woods on fire

The Staple Singers - "The Weight" I pulled into Nazareth, was feelin' about half past dead
I just need some place where I can lay my head
"Hey, mister, can you tell me where a man might find a bed?"
He just grinned and shook my hand...
Elvin Bishop - "Juke Joint Jump" There's a jumpin' little juke joint
Way out in the sticks
Half a mile down a dirt road
Off a highway six
Ain't near no town
Ain't close to no city
Those folks get down
Til it's a doggone pity

Keb' Mo' - "I Remember You" My name is Junior
From Memphis, Tennessee
My daddy was a hustler
And a stranger to me
I don't always know
Just what to say, now, listen
Do I look familiar
In any kinda way?
Well, I remember you...
Robert Cray - "Smoking Gun" I get a constant busy signal
When I call you on the phone
I get a strong, uneasy feeling
You're not sitting there alone
I'm having nasty, nasty visions
And baby you're in every one, yeah
And I'm so...
