C 
Hey little girl is your daddy home 
                                     Fadd9 
Did he go and leave you all alone and 
             Am 
I got a bad desire 
Fadd9  G          C 
Oh-oh-oh, I'm on fire 
 
C 
Tell me now baby is he good to you 
                                         Fadd9 
Can he do to you the things I can't do when 
                 Am 
I can take you higher 
Fadd9 G           C 
Oh-oh-oh, I'm on fire 
 
Am C  
 
Am 
Sometimes it's like someone took a knife baby 
Edgy and dull and cut a six-inch valley 
Through the middle of my soul 
 
C 
At night I wake up with the sheets soaking wet 
And a freight train running through the 
Middle of my head 
      Fadd9           Am 
Only you can cool my desire 
Fadd9  G           C 
Oh-oh-oh, I'm on fire 
Fadd9  G           C 
Oh-oh-oh, I'm on fire 
Fadd9  G           C 
Oh-oh-oh, I'm on fire 
 
Am C Am C
