CINCINNATI FIREBALL
(J. Leslie Mac / Farland Aaron / M. Schroeder)
Johnny & Dorsey Burnette - 1960


There's a gal they call the Cincinnati Fireball
One look, you fall for that Cincinnati Fireball
I bet you five will get you ten
She's gonna break my heart again
That's why I know I gotta go back to Ohio
Now, when she walks that walk
It's such a pleasure to the eye
And when she talks sweet talk
You'll love it, though it's all a lie
And when she tells you she'll be true
But never tells you true to who
That's why I know I gotta go back to Ohio
That Cincinnati Fireball
She's not too tall, but she's got it all
And ooh that kiss, that kiss of fire
It makes you wanna climb the wall
Well, I'm a fool, it's clear
But my desire's very small
If I could just be near to that Cincinnati Fireball
'Cause everytime I hold her tight
It's worth a thousand sleepless nights
That's why I know I gotta go back to Ohio
