Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You shake my nerves and you rattle my brain
Too much love drives a man insane
You broke my will, but what a thrill
Goodness gracious, great balls of fire
[Verse 2]
I laughed at love 'cause I thought it was funny
You came along and wooed me, honey
I've changed my mind, this love is fine
Goodness gracious, great balls of fire
[Chorus]
Kiss me, baby
Mmm, feels good
Hold me, baby
Well, I wants to love you like a lover should
[Verse 3]
You're fine, so kind
Got to tell this world that you're mine, mine, mine, mine
[Verse 4]
I chewed my nail and then I twiddled my thumb
I'm real nervous, but it sure is fun
C'mon baby, you drive me crazy
Goodness gracious, great balls of fire
[Chorus]
Well, kiss me, baby
Mmm, feels good
Hold me, baby
Well, I wants to love you like a lover should
[Verse 5]
You're fine, so kind
Got to tell this world that you're mine, mine, mine, mine
[Outro]
I chewed my nail and then I twiddled my thumb
I'm real nervous, but it sure is fun
C'mon, baby, drive me crazy
Goodness gracious, great balls of fire
