Heart On Fire

Roosevelt Road was too rough for my old truck 

Yeah she’d shake and she’d shimmy like Elvis singin’ “All Shook Up” 

But you can’t blame a boy for going, drive it like you stole it fast 

With your window down, brown hair, blowin’ look at me like that  

A turned up radio but the static was heavy  

Couldn’t make out any words but “take me to the levee” 

That look on your face was full of wild desire 

Soakin’ my soul in gas and settin’ my heart on fire 

Heart on fire, heart on fire, heart on fire 

I don’t have a single second thought that doesn’t have you in it 

To feel those flames again, I go back in a New York minute 

I miss the freedom of you dancing on the bow of your daddy’s old boat 

When my spirit starts sinkin’ that picture always makes it float baby 

We weren’t old enough to drink but we damn sure did it 

Hat turned backward singin’ “Paradise City” 

That look on your face was full of young desire 

Soakin’ my soul in gas and settin’ my heart on fire  

Heart on fire 

Turned up radio but the static was heavy  

Couldn’t make out any words but “Take Me To The Levee” 

That look on your face was full of wild desire 

Heart on fire, heart on fire, heart on fire, heart on fire 

Heart on fire, heart on fire, heart on fire, heart on, heart on fire   

Roosevelt road was too much for my old truck 

Yeah she’d shake and she’d shimmy like Elvis singin’ “All Shook Up” 

Heart on fire….heart on fire…heart on fire
