C Comb your hair and paint and powder F you act proud and I'll act prouder G You sing loud and I'll sing louder G tonight we're settin' the woods on fire
C You're my gal and I'm your feller F dress up in your frock of yeller G I'll look swell but you'll look sweller GC settin' the woods on fire
F We'll take in all the honky tonks C tonight we're having fun D7 We'll show the folks a brand new dance G that never has been done
