The Meters - Gettin' Funkier All the Time: The Complete Josie, Reprise and Warner Recordings 1968-1977

Live Wire

Well, if you're lookin' for trouble
I'm the man to see
If you're lookin' for satisfaction
I'm satisfaction guaranteed

I'm as cool as a body on ice
Or hotter than a rollin' dice
Send you to heaven, take you to hell
I ain't foolin', can't you tell?

I'm a live wire, gonna set this town on fire

Well, if you need some lovin'
And if you need some man
You've got the phone and the number
And I got no future plans

Oh come on honey, you got nothin' to lose
You got the thirst and I got the booze
Give you an inch, take you a mile
I wanna make you smile

I'm a live wire, holy smoke and sweet desire
Like a hot rod baby, oh, stick this in your fuse box

Cooler than a body on ice
Hotter than a rollin' dice
Wilder than a drunken fight
You're gonna burn tonight

I'm a live wire and I'm gonna set this town on fire
