Fire and Gasoline

When she wrapped her lovin' arms around my neck
On the dance floor at Chelsey's bar
I should have turned her away, but how was I to see
I was fire and she was gasoline

We were both sad and lonely after what death had done
But like rattlesnakes kicked across the ground
Our true loves were dead and our hearts were full of grief
I was fire and she was gasoline
I was fire and she was gasoline.

But we helped each other out Lord, to ease some of the pain
Best friends and lovers, most of the time.
But, I would go mad when she would turn mean
I was fire and she was gasoline
I was fire and she was gasoline.

Well she left me as many times as I threw her out
Should we stay together or apart?
Yet, it's hard to be alone and the future to see
I was fire and she was gasoline

But, when we got locked up in the Chester County Jail
We both knew it was too far out of hand
Staring at five years in the penitentiary
I was fire and she was gasoline
Good god too much fire and too much gasoline.

Well, we cleaned that mess up, we made amends the best we could
But, we could not be together anymore
I can't say that I don't miss you , but we've gotta let it be
Cause I'm still fire and you're still gasoline yeah
I was fire and you was gasoline.
I was fire and you was gasoline.

I was fire and she was gasoline.
