Settin' The World On Fire Lyrics - Barefoot Blue Jean Night - Jake Owen

Well that big red sun was sinkin' slow 

That rising had a haunting glow 

I could see those heat waves rising off the ground 

We were sittin'on go at that old stop sign 

Headlights shinin' on the county line 

It was do or die, had to get out of that town 

Well honey, you said run 

We were so young 

Tryin' to the world on fire 

Turn the key and spark the wire 

Chasin' down a feelin' runnin' on desire 

The future was an open road 

Gone in a cloud of smoke 

Leavin' a trail of flames behind those tires 

Just you and me girl, settin' the world on fire 

Yeah, we were settin' the world on fire 

We were blazin' down the road like Kerouac 

No time to stop and cover our tracks 

We were too damn hot for any one town to hold 

Yeah, we burned through a few good years 

Then you started looking back in that rear view mirror 

Right outside of Reno the trail got cold 

You said you'd had enough of this ramblin' love 

Tryin' to the world on fire 

Turn the key and spark the wire 

Chasin' down a feelin' runnin' on desire 

The future was an open road 

Gone in a cloud of smoke 

Leavin' a trail of flames behind those tires 

For a while there girl, we were settin' the world on fire 

Pullin' on a lucky strike 'bout to head west 

Ridin' off into God's sunset 

It's times like this a always think of you 

But honey you know me I'll always be. 

Tryin' to the world on fire 

Turn the key and spark the wire 

Chasin' down a feelin' runnin' on desire 

The future was an open road 

Gone in a cloud of smoke 

Leavin' a trail of flames behind these tires 

See I'm out here girl settin' the world on fire 

I'm settin' the world on fire 

Yeah, I'm settin' the world on fire
