Burn It At Both Ends Lyrics by Randall King

2019

[Verse 1]
I don't want one single night
Coming back to haunt me
I can't let them baby blues
Come back 'round to taunt me
Your leavin' left me hurtin'
Girl, I'm tired of kickin', cursin'
So I'll do a little goodbye burnin'
Goodbye burnin'
[Chorus]
'Cause I want everything about you
Going up in smoke
I'm gonna douse it down with whiskey
So it ain't burning slow
Tonight, I'm lightin' up your memory
Like it's love's last cigarette
From our first love to seein' you with him
I'm gonna burn it at both ends
[Verse 2]
Now, I know there's some good ones
Livin' in the middle
But I don't wanna miss 'em
Not even just a little
From echoes of your laughin'
To the click of your suitcase latchin'
I'm gonna leave it all in ashes
All in ashes
[Chorus]
'Cause I want everything about you
Going up in smoke
I'm gonna douse it down with whiskey
So it ain't burning slow
Tonight, I'm lightin' up your memory
Like it's love's last cigarette
From our first love to seein' you with him
I'm gonna burn it at both ends
[Chorus]
I want everything about you
Going up in smoke
I'm gonna douse it down with whiskey
So it ain't burning slow
Tonight, I'm lightin' up your memory
Like it's love's last cigarette
From our first love to seein' you with him
So there ain't no way of you me again
I'm gonna burn it at both, burn it both
Burn it at both ends, at both ends
