You look at me that way
I know what your eyes say
Your eyes reflect love and desire
I see that you need me
I need you to please me
You touch me and set me on fire

It's the way that you love me
The way that you touch me
The way that you whisper my name
I cannot resist you
Each time I kiss you
Then everything goes up in flames

Baby I'm burning out of control
Baby I'm burning body and soul
Hot as a pistol of flaming desire
Baby I'm burning, you got me on fire
I'm on fire

This red hot emotion
Puts fireworks in motion
It looks like the Fourth of July
There's no use in fighting
This fire you've ignited
Just stand back and watch the sparks fly

Baby I'm burning out of control
Baby I'm burning body and soul
Hot as a pistol of flaming desire
Baby I'm burning, you got me on fire

Baby I'm burning
Baby I'm burning
Baby I'm burning
Baby I'm burning

Baby I'm burning out of control
Baby I'm burning body and soul
Hot as a pistol of flaming desire
Baby I'm burning, you got me on fire

Baby I'm burning out of control
Baby I'm burning body and soul
Hot as a pistol of flaming desire
Baby I'm burning, you got me on fire

Baby I'm burning out of control
Baby I'm burning body and soul
Hot as a pistol of flaming desire
Baby I'm burning, you got me on fire

Dolly Rebecca Parton (born January 19, 1946) is an American singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, actress, author, and philanthropist, best known for her work in country music

Beginning her career as a child performer, Parton issued a few modestly successful singles from 1959 through the mid-1960s, showcasing her distinctive soprano voice. She came to greater prominence in 1967 as a featured performer on singer Porter Wagoner’s weekly television program; their first duet single, a cover of Tom Paxton’s “The Last Thing on My Mind”, was a top-ten hit on the country singles charts, and led to several successful albums before they ended their partnership in 1974. Moving towards mainstream pop music, Parton’s 1977 single “Here You Come Again” was a success on both the country and pop charts. A string of pop-country hits followed into the mid-1980s, the most successful being her 1981 hit 9 to 5" (from the film of the same name), and her 1983 duet with Kenny Rogers “Islands in the Stream”, both of which topped the U.S. pop and country singles charts. A pair of albums recorded with Linda Ronstadt and Emmylou Harris were among her later successes. In the late 1990s, Parton returned to classic country/bluegrass with a series of acclaimed recordings
