Lyrics
[Intro]
Shake, shake, shake, shake it, yeah
[Verse 1]
Wound up, can't sleep
Can't do anything right, little honey
Oh, since I set my eyes on you
I tell you the truth
T-t-t-t-t-twist it like a flame in a slow dance, baby
You're driving me crazy
C'mon, little honey
C'mon now
[Chorus]
Fire
Smoke, she is a-rising
Fire, yeah
Smoke on the horizon, well
Fire
Smoke, she is a-rising
Fire
Oh, smokestack lightning
Smokestack lightning
[Verse 2]
Well, now
I'm shaken up, you're to blame
Got me swaying, little honey
My heart's a ball of burning flame
Oh, yes it is
Prancing like a cat on a hot tin shack
Lord, have mercy
C'mon, little sister
C'mon and shake it
[Chorus]
Fire
Smoke, she is a-rising
Fire
Oh, smoke on the horizon, yeah
Fire
Smoke, she is a-rising
Fire
Oh, smokestack lightning, baby
[Bridge]
I was thinking
What I've been missing
I'll tell you truthfully, well
She's coming close now
Ooh, I can feel her
She's getting close to me
And I never, yeah
[Bridge]
Yeah
[Chorus]
Fire
Smoke, she is a-rising
Fire
Oh, smoke on the horizon
Fire
Smoke, she is a-rising, rising, rising
Fire
Smokestack lightning
[Chorus]
Burning out and shake it, baby
C'mon and burn it
Sends down fire to me, I say send down fire to me
I say send down fire to me, yeah
[Outro]
Fire woman, you're to blame
Fire woman, you're to blame
Fire woman, you're to blame
Fire woman, you're to blame
