Porter Wagoner - Settin' The Woods On Fire lyrics

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 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'll be daffy and I'll be dilly

We'll order up two bowls of chili settin' the woods on fire

[ fiddle - steel - piano ]

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 us 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 laws allowin'

Tomorrow I'll be right back plowin' settin' the woods on fire
