Clarence Carter Light My Fire Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You know that it would be untrue
You know that I would be a liar
If I was to say to you
Hey, girl, we couldn't get much higher

[Chorus]
So come on, baby, light my fire
Come on, baby, light my fire
Try to set the night on fire

[Verse 2]
The time for hesitation is through
There's no time to wallow in the mire
Darling, we could only lose
And our love become a funeral pyre

[Chorus]
So come on, baby, light my fire
Come on, baby, light my fire
Try to set the night on fire [Verse 1]
Well, you know that it would be untrue
You know that I would be a liar
If I was to go and tell you
Mama, we can't get much higher

[Chorus]
Well, come on, baby, light my fire
Come on, baby, light my fire
Got to set the night on fire

[Outro]
Ooh, come on, baby, light my fire
Baby, come on now
You oughta wanna light my fire, baby
It's alright, it's alright, baby, so come on and
Light my fire, light my fire, light my fire
