Lyrics
Verse 1
County's dry as a preacher's sermonAin't seen rain since the first of JuneSheriff posted up the warnin'Ain't no fires under this here moonThen you walked in with that red lipstickLeanin' on the jukebox like a loaded gunEvery cowboy in the bar went quietDarlin', look what you've done
Pre‑Chorus
There's a burn ban on in this whole townBut baby, you're about to burn it down
Chorus
You're a spark in a burn banGasoline in a whiskey glassStrike a match on the dance floorWatch the whole room catchAin't no water in this countyAin't no way to put it outYou're a spark in a burn banBurnin' this whole town down
Verse 2
I told myself I was done with troubleTold my mama I'd be home by twoBut trouble's got a way of smilin'When trouble looks a lot like youNow the bartender's ringin' the last bellAnd the fire marshal's out on the floorYou grabbed my hand and said "let's go, cowboy"And we kicked open that back door
Pre‑Chorus
There's a burn ban on in this whole townBut baby, you're about to burn it down
Chorus
You're a spark in a burn banGasoline in a whiskey glassStrike a match on the dance floorWatch the whole room catchAin't no water in this countyAin't no way to put it outYou're a spark in a burn banBurnin' this whole town down
Bridge
Let the sirens wail, let the smoke roll highI ain't never felt this much aliveIf this is wrong then call it sinI'd light it all up again
Final Chorus
You're a spark in a burn banGasoline in a whiskey glassStrike a match on the dance floorWatch the whole room catchAin't no water in this countyAin't no way to put it outYou're a spark in a burn banBurnin' this whole town down
Outro
Burnin' this whole town downYeah, burnin' this whole town down
