The Fuse

Down at the court house

they're ringin' the flag down

Long black line of cars

snackin' slow through town

Red sheets snappin' on the line

With this ring, will you be mine

The fuse is burning

(Shut out the lights)

The fuse is burning

(Come on let me do you right)

Trees on fire with the

first fall's froet

Long black line in front

of Holy Cross

Blood moon risin' in

a sky of black dust

Tell me Baby who

do you trust?

The fuse is burning

(Shut out the lights)

The fuse is burning

(Come on let me do you right)

Tires on the

highway hissin'

something's coming

You can feel the wires

in the tree top hummin'

Devil's on the horizon line

Your kiss and I'm alive

A quiet afternoon,

an empty house

On the edge of the bed

your slip off your blouse

The room is burning

with the noon sun

Your bittersweet taste

on my tongue

The fuse is burning

(Shut out the lights)

The fuse is burning

(Come on let me do you right)
