Ooh hoo hoo, I feel my temperature rising Help me I'm flamin', I must be a hundred and nine Burnin', burnin', burnin', and nothing can cool me I just might turn into smoke, but I feel fine But your kisses lift me higher Like the sweet song of the choir And you light my morning sky With burning love It's coming closer, the flames are now licking my body Won't you help me, I feel like I'm slipping away It's hard to breathe, my chest is a-heavin' Lord have mercy, I'm burning a hole where I lay, yeah Your kisses lift me higher Like the sweet song of the choir You blind my morning sky With burning love

I'm just a hunka hunka burning love I'm just a hunka hunka burning love
