The FuseDown at the court house they're ringin' the flag downLong black line of cars snakin' 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 first fall's frost Long black line 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 come feel the wires and the tree tops hummin' Devil's on the horizon line Your kiss and I'm alive Quiet afternoon an empty house On the edge of bed you 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 |
