[Chorus]
Oh, she's on fire
Oh, she's on fire

[Verse 1]
Hot to trot, she's a bit insane
Little bit a pleasure
With a little bit a pain
I got to be smoking
So I know without a doubt
Where there's smoke there's fire
So I got to boot it out

[Chorus]
Say oh, she's on fire
Oh, she's on fire

[Verse 2]
Homely child with a hang down lip
Starved for love and companionship
Little by little, catching up to me
She's more of a woman
Then I thought she'd be to me...yeah
Hungry girl, she's the skinniest thing
She's saying the word, I'm losing sting?
She's on fire
She hung my head in a guillotine
She's my flame, she's a wetting my dream
She's on fire

[Outro]
Oh, she's on fire
Oh, she's on fire
Oh, she's on fire
Oh, she's on fire

Aerosmith is an American rock band, sometimes referred to as “The Bad Boys from Boston” and “America’s Greatest Rock and Roll Band.” Formed in 1970, its founding members are Steven Tyler (vocals, keyboards, harmonica), Tom Hamilton (bass), Joey Kramer (drums), Joe Perry (guitar, vocals) and Brad Whitford (guitar).

The band released their eponymous debut studio album in 1973 featuring the single “Dream On,” which remains one of their most popular songs. Their next four albums made them rock stars across the US and Canada, spawning the hits “Sweet Emotion”, “Last Child”, “Walk This Way”, “Back In The Saddle”, “Draw The Line”, and a cover of “Come Together” for the Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band Soundtrack.

Before the release of their fifth album Draw The Line, the band’s substance abuse began to destroy them. Perry quit after a backstage fight with Tyler in 1979, and Whitfield left two years later. Despite moderate sales, the band’s fifth and sixth albums were considered flops when compared to the band’s past accomplishments. When Perry and Whitfield returned in 1984, their eighth album Done With Mirrors was also deemed unsuccessful despite strong reviews. Doug Herzog (MTV, VH1)
