Lyrics Gasoline - Lera Lynn

Gasoline

Well I’ve seen you at Sarah’s Hardware Store
Buying long matches, two feet or more
So you don’t have to get too close to
The thing that might bite and burn you, dear
Well I’ve seen you at Mary’s Nursery
Picking up all her sticks and trees
And hauling it home in Abby’s trailer
Building a fire we would savor, dear
Oh you’re so good with gasoline
I’ve never seen a lie burn so clean
Now that I’ve gone up in flames
You’ve found a new friend, ohhh
You said you worked for City Safety
Putting out fires when things get hasty
And scooping up girls, young and helpless
Laying 'em down in smoking dress, oh dear
Well I’ve seen you drive the big red truck
Just barrel through 'cause it’s all luck
That you don’t get stopped at any red lights
There’s no red tape in your sights, oh dear
Oh you’re so good with gasoline
I’ve never seen a lie burn so clean
Now that I’ve gone up in flames
You’ve found a new friend, ohhh
You’ve found a new friend
What happens when wind starts blowing?
Flame spreads and all are knowing
Of house calls and late night fire fighting
And your face gets pasted on
The front page as local con
And lands on the front steps of the city
Well you thought fire could keep you sitting pretty
Oh you’re so good with gasoline
I’ve never seen a lie burn so-
Now that I’ve gone up in flames
You’ve found a new friend
You’ve found a new friend, ohhh
