Burn Me Down Lyrics by Carlton Anderson

2022

I got what you want
You’ve got what I need
I don't get your days
You spend your nights with me
And honey I've been waiting on you to come around

I got the box of matches
You got the gasoline
All that's left is to be the ashes
When you get through with me
And honey I ain’t prayin’ for the rain to put it out
Baby light me up and burn me down

Desperately I've been waiting on your body
Next to me
That's where I want you to be
Like lightening to a hayfield in a west Texas town
Baby light me up and burn me down

Drag me across the coals
You know I can't say no
Send your signals up in smoke
Go on girl let’em roll
Basically there’s no way to save me know
Baby light me up and burn me down

Desperately, I've been waiting on your body
Next to me
That’s where I won’t you to be
Like lightening to a hayfield in a west Texas town
Baby light me up and burn me down

[instrumental]

Desperately, I've been waiting on your body
Next to me
That’s where I want you to be
Like lightening to a hayfield in a west Texas town
Baby light me up and burn me down

Like lightening to a hayfield in a west Texas town
Baby light me up and burn me down

Burn me down
