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 your 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 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

Tonight we'll have ball, oh brother

Settin' the woods on fire

We'll put aside a little time to fix a flat or two

My tires 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
