Comb your hair and paint and powder
You act proud and I'll act prouder
You sing loud and I'll sing louder
Tonight we're settin' the woods on fire
You're my gal and I'm your feller
Dress up in your frock of yeller
I'll look swell, but you'll look sweller
Settin' the woods on fire
We'll take in all the honkey tonks
Tonight we're having fun
We'll show the folks a brand new dance
That never has been done
I don't care who thinks we're silly
You be Daffy and I'll be Dilly
We'll order up two bowls of chili
Settin' the woods on fire
I'll gas up my hot rod stoker
We'll get hotter than a poker
You'll be broke, but I'll be broker
Tonight, we're settin' the woods on fire
We'll set close to one another
Up one street and down the other
We'll have a time, oh brother
Settin' the woods on fire
We'll put aside a little time
To fix a flat or two
My tires and tubes are doing fine
But the air is showing through
You clap hands and I'll start bowing
We'll do all the law's allowing
Tomorrow I'll be right back plowing
Settin' the woods on fire
