Down at the court house they're ringin' the flag down
Long 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 the first fall's frost
Long black line in
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' that something's coming
You can feel the
wires in the tree tops
hummin'
Devil's on the horizon line
Your
skin and I'm
alive
Quiet afternoon in the empty house
On the edge of the
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
Come on let me do you
