Burn My Candle

MARTY DODSON, CLINTON ROSS PARK, JOHNNY EARL PARK

Who's got a match for striking
Don't say it all depends
Who wants to help me burn my candle
At both ends

Who's got a light he's hiding
Under a bush or fence
Who wants to help me burn my candle
At both ends

It's possible it may not last a night
While it burns, what a wonderful light

Who'd like to play with fire
After they can make amends
Who wants to help me burn my candle
At both ends

Who doesn't mind a reaper
After he's sown wild oats
Who wants to take a chance and help me
Burn my boats

Who's not a look then leaper
Won't hit warning note
Who wants to take a chance and help me
Burn my boats

It's possible the pace may prove too hot
But then again, it could happen it's not

Who'd like to get in deeper
Not caring if he floats
Who wants to take a chance and help me
Burn my boats

There's S for Scotch that's so direct
And for straight and simple sex
I for invitation to
A close relationship with you
N for nothing bad, no less
S I N that's sin I guess

Who's got a good ignition
Waiting for dividends
Who wants to help me burn my candle
At both ends

Who's really in condition
Won't mind how much he spends
Who wants to help me burn my candle
At both ends it may not last
But it's all in the game, my friend
And while it burns what a fabulous flame

Who has an inhibition
Weaker than he pretends
Who has a notch that's on the handle
Open my door and spurn the scandal
Who wants to help me burn my candle
At both ends
