Lyrics Hank Williams

Hank Williams

Settin' the Woods on Fire

Comb your hair and paint and powder

You act proud and I'll act prouder

You sing loud and I'll sing louder

Tonight we're settin' the woods on fire

You're my gal and I'm your feller

Dress up in my frock and yeller

I'll look swell but you'll look sweller

Settin' the woods on fire

We'll take in all the honky tonks

Tonight we're having fun

We'll show the folks a brand new dance

That never has been done

I don't care who thinks we're silly

You'll be daffy and I'll be dilly

We'll order up two bowls of chili

Settin' the woods on fire

I'll gas up my hot rod stoker

We'll get hotter than a poker

You'll be broke but I'll be broker

Tonight we're settin' the woods on fire

We'll sit close to one another

Up one street and down the other

We'll have a time oh brother

Settin' the woods on fire

We'll put aside a little time

To fix a flat or two

My tyres and tubes are doin' fine

But the air is showin' through

You clap hands and I'll start bowin'

We'll do all the law's allowin'

Tomorrow I'll be right back plowin'

Settin' the woods on fire
