Dancing naked around a fire

Sometimes you get tied down

And I’m rounding first and I’m sliding into second

She could never hold her tongue much
G
And when I bit her lip hard

Showing some forgiveness

In your wooly socks and Birkenstocks
G
What would they say about us

At the hour of the evening

The night will carry on without us

And my friends seems to trust us

They believe this silly kinda of cop out
Let me tell you now
