Burnin'

It's always in the back of my mind

A shiver up my spine

Won't you tell me where the hell I might find

That little spark to keep me satisfied

I can't get it

You can see I'm not fine

I can't get it

Straighten up I'm not the kind

I can't get it

Won't you throw your boy a dime

I can't get it

Just a little bit to get me by

Burnin'

Like a cigarette alight

Burnin'

She's an angel in the night

Burnin'

Oh you're a sight for sore eyes

Burnin'

And it's keeping me alive

Another day alive in this auburn haze

Situation never seems to change

A vagrant on the road tells me that he knows the way

But I can't take the heat so I think I'm here to stay

I can't get it

It's an itch I can't scratch baby

I can't get it

Oh don't tell me to relax

I can't get it

Got this monkey on my back

I can't get it

So girl why won't ya cut me some slack

Burnin'

Like a cigarette alight

Burnin'

She's an angel in the night

Burnin'

Oh you're a sight for sore eyes

Burnin'

And it's keeping me alive

Alive

Alive

Alive

Burnin'

Like a cigarette alight

Burnin'

She's an angel in the night

Burnin'

Oh you're a sight for sore eyes

Burnin'

And it's keeping me alive

Alive

Alive

Alive
