Lyrics:
If you´re looking for someone that you can keep
then, baby, pass me by
And if you wanted something that´s twenty years deep
Baby, don´t even try
And if you wanted someone to take your soul
I´ll lift you up little bit higher
I´ve got the fire
I´ve got the fire
So you think I´m skinny, don´t you sell me cheap
I´m wide as a counrty-mile
Some like it wide, I like it deep
Guess which one is my style
So you think you can beat me by my own game
Maybe I call you a liar
I´ve got the fire
I´ve got the fire
