Kerosene

Ribbon in my hair
Lipstick on my lips
Down on the quarter mile
I let my backbone slip
All the dirty secrets
That a country band keeps
When you fall in love
And let another heart bleed

The stars keep on blinking
You've done it again
You set the town on fire
Just to stand and watch it burn
Listen to the sirens wail
And then you walk away
I saw you pouring kerosene on the flame

Outlaw Country Radio
Knows all about my ex-husbands
Outcast freaks and rebels
With Paula Nelson from six until ten
I am running wild
I am on the loose
Tie a string around my heart
To remember to forget about you

The stars keep on blinking
You've done it again
You set the town on fire
Just to stand and watch it burn
Listen to the sirens wail
And then you walk away
I saw you pouring kerosene on the flames
