Volcano
By: J.R. Robertson
BbGot my motor runnin'
Little girl, are you comin'
CmKeep your Ebcandle burning Fbright
BbSoon as you are ready
Hold that ladder steady
CmCome tread Ebsoftly through the Bbnight
Chorus:
EbDon't leave me Abin the dark
Like a Ebghost rider in your Bbyard
EbCarving are Abnames in bark Cmalong the bouleFvard
I'd be a bushwhacker
Even be your hijacker
Keep your candle burning bright
When we cross that railroad track
There'll be no turning back
Come tread softly through the night
Don't leave me sitting here
Up on top of your fence
I'm like an alley cat up here, without a lick of sense
BbVolcano--IEb'm about to Bbblow
Volcano--Gonna overflow
Volcano--Look out below
Don't leave me empty-handed
Like a villain in the woods
Prowling around the grounds, trying to make off with the goods
Volcano--I'm about to blow
Volcano--Gonna overflow
Volcano--Look out below
