"LIVE WIRE"]
(SINGING) Well, I got me a lover as stubborn as a weed.
Oh, well, he met his match on the day he met me.
Even when I paddle my boat up shore--
--oh, well, the river keep on floating me right back
to your door.
No telling when the lightning strike.
You make me feel I've gotta, gotta hold on tight.
I got a--
--live wire!
I got a live wire!
Some people just built that way.
Never looking back at the mess they made.
Live wire!
I got a live wire!
Never knowing what the cat'll drag in,
but this bird's getting out of his cage again.
I got--
--a live wire!
I got a live wire.
Well, I got me a joint in the middle of town.
Stay up all night when my friends come around.
Yeah.
You know it's all going to change
when the screen door slams.
There come the wild wind blowing you back into my head.
Next thing you know, you're hurrying on in.
The circuit's start to blow me off my feet again.
I've got the live wire!
Got a live wire!
Some people just built that way.
Never looking back at the mess they made.
I got a--
--live wire!
Got a live wire.
You're never knowing what the cat'll drag in,
but this bird's getting out of his cage again.
I got a--
--live wire!
Well, I got a live wire.
Live wire.
My love for you is a hurricane.
Come crashing on me like a runaway train.
Yeah.
My love for you is like a house on fire.
Well, I'm burning up with a strange desire.
Yeah.
Oh, I got a live wire!
Got a live wire!
Yeah, I got a--
Some people just built that way, never looking back
at the mess they made.
I got a--
--live wire!
Live wire!
Never know what the cat'll drag in,
but this bird's getting out of its cage again.
I got a--
--live wire!
Uh-huh, I got a--
--a live wire.
I got a live--
Live, live, live wire.
I got a live wire.
Live, live.
Live.
Live wire.
[APPLAUSE]
All right!
Yes, indeed!
Sheryl's CD, Threads, comes out this fall.
We'll be back.
