I'm the oil in your engine, baby
I'm smokin' and I'm burnin'
I'm the oil in your engine, baby
I'm smokin' and I'm burnin'
Don't be comin' around here right now
While my heart for you is yearnin'

I'm the firewood in your fireplace baby
I'm hissin' and I'm poppin'
Well, I'm the firewood in your fireplace baby
I'm hissin' and I'm poppin'
And if you see me with another woman
Yeah, I'm only window shoppin'

Well don't cut your hair whatever you do
'Cause I need to run my fingers through

Smokin' and a burnin'
And smokin' and a burnin'
I got nowhere to go
And this old world keeps turnin'

We got chicken on the skillet
But we didn't have to kill it
It's a shame I didn't will it
To my mother-in-law

But I've got no course of action
And I get some satisfaction
'Cause you and me, baby
We smoke and burn all night long

Now listen I'm the gasoline in your carburetor
Without me you can't run (you ain't goin' nowhere)
I'm the gasoline in your carburetor, baby
Without me you can't run
Now don't pretend you don't need me mama
'Cause once I'm gone you got no one

Well, I got a little gal
Now she thinks she's smart
But I had her pegged
Baby from the very start

Smokin' and I'm burnin'
I'm smokin' and a burnin'
I got nowhere to go
And this old world keeps turnin'
Smokin' and I'm burnin'
Smokin' and I'm burnin'
Smokin' and I'm burnin'
Smokin' and I'm burnin'
I got nowhere to go
And this old world keeps turnin'
