Melissa Etheridge

Songwriter: Bruce Springsteen

Hey little girl is your daddy home
Did he go away and leave you all alone
Oh oh I've got a bad desire
Oh oh oh I'm on fire

Tell me now baby is he good to you
Can he do to you the things that I do
I could take you higher
Oh oh oh I'm on fire

Sometimes it's like someone took a knife baby edgy and dull
And cut a six-inch valley through the middle of my soul
At night I wake up with the sheets soaking wet
And a freight train running through the middle of my head
And only you can cool my desire
Oh oh oh I'm on fire
Oh oh oh I'm on fire
Oh oh oh I'm on fire

Melissa Etheridge is a multi-grammy-award-winning rock singer/songwriter who has been called “the female Bruce Springsteen.” She rose to popularity in 1993 with her album Yes I Am just after coming out to the public as gay. Her most popular songs include “Come to My Window,” “Bring Me Some Water,” and “I’m the Only One,” all of which are about overwhelming passion, longing and jealousy.
