A whole lotta ain't

[Verse 1]
Nineteen summers, red clay on my boots
Daddy's old screen door still sings when it मूves
Mama said, "Baby, keep that hard road straight"
But this town knows every tear I tried to save

I learned to bite down on a broken dream
Hold it in my chest till it turned to steam
Now I wear these scars like a Sunday dress
Pretty on the outside, but I confess

[Pre-Chorus]
I been small too long
I been quiet too long
If you hear me shaking
That's the storm coming on

[Chorus]
I burn, I burn, I burn
Like a front porch fire
Honey, I won't turn
I was born for the wire
Call my name, call my name (call my name)
Watch me rise through the smoke
I burn, I burn, I burn
And I don't let go

[Verse 2]
My first love left in a cloud of dust
Said forever like he really meant us
I cried in the fields where the weeds run wild
Then I laughed out loud like a stubborn child

Now I drive that road with the windows down
Sing to the moon when it comes around
Got a scratch in my throat and a steel-eyed grin
If the world wants war, then I let it in

[Pre-Chorus]
I been bruised before
I been down on the floor
But you don't get my ending
You don't get no more

[Chorus]
I burn, I burn, I burn
Like a front porch fire
Honey, I won't turn
I was born for the wire
Call my name, call my name (call my name)
Watch me rise through the smoke
I burn, I burn, I burn
And I don't let go

[Bridge]
Let them say I'm too wild
Too young, too rough
Every cut made room
For the woman I'm made of
If I fall, I fall
Like a oak in a storm
Still I leave a warm red glow
When the dark gets born

[Final Chorus]
I burn, I burn, I burn
Like a front porch fire
Honey, I won't turn
I was born for the wire
Call my name, call my name (call my name)
Watch me rise through the smoke
I burn, I burn, I burn
And I don't let go

I burn, I burn, I burn
Till the last spark shows
I burn, I burn, I burn
And I don't let go
