My baby walks on fire, but she never gets burned.
My baby walks on fire, but she never gets burned.
You want to walk with her, boys, you got a lot to learn.

She’s a regular fire eater—like that high wire, too.
She’s a regular fire eater—like that high wire, too.
No telling what she might do, when she’s in the mood.

She’s hot, and she knows she is:
Pony up, boys, and some lucky fool gets kissed.
She’s hot, she’s got burning lips,
She’ll set you on fire with her finger tips:
She’s hot. She’s hot.

She’ll walk into the lion’s den, hungry lions all around.
She’ll walk into the lion’s den, hungry lions all around.
The good Lord gave her something; make all them cats lie right down.

INSTRUMENTAL BREAK/VERSE

Well, she’s hot, and she knows she is:
Pony up now and some lucky fool gets kissed.
She’s hot, boys, you know she is:
Set you on fire with her finger tips:
She’s hot.

She’ll stand up on two white horses, jewels in her crown.
She’ll stand up on two white horses, jewels in her crown.
Drop down in that saddle and ride that little pony all around.

My baby walks on fire, but she never gets burned.
My baby walks on fire, but she never gets burned.
You want to walk with her, boys, you got a lot to learn.
