Lewis, Jerry Lee - I'm On Fire Lyrics






Well, help me, mister fireman, please,
You know I'm burnin' from my head to my knees
I'm a-flame with such a burning desire
The little girl set my soul on fire
She's got me burning up like a paper cup…
...I say: "mmmh... I'm on fire!!?"

Turn in full alarm
I'm a-flame from all of her charms
Oh, little firebug, can't you see
Can't you see what you're doin' to me?
She's got me burning up like a paper cup…
...I say: "mmmh... I'm on fire!!?"

And when my babe kisses me
I start shakin' like a ship on a stormy sea
And when I hear her say
I'm gonna love you every minute of the day
I start to roast like toast... ooh, wee!!

Lewis, Jerry Lee I'm On Fire Comments
  1. R.... '....

    This will definitely be one of the songs I'm going to request to be played for my "celebration of life", while I'm being cremated...ha ha! 😉 It's between this and Ring of Fire by Johnny Cash. I think I'm going to go with both songs, though. This song, first, (during the cremation process), then Ring of Fire by Johnny Cash, right afterwards...ha ha! 😂 At least if I do that, anyone who attends will smile, enjoy a good laugh and feel happiness, rather than cry their eyes out, feel complete sadness and become really depressed. 😞 This is what I definitely want though, people to be happy, smiling and laughing, while enjoying listening to great music by talented artists at my celebration of life, instead of being sad, devastated, depressed and heartbroken. I want others to be happy, smiling, laughing and living in the moment, in memory of me. 🙂

    this version is much better than the sweet version released in 64

    " Help me mister fireman, please
    You know I'm burning from my head to my knees
    I'm aflame with such a burning desire
    A little girl set my soul on fire
    She's got me burning up like a paper cup
    Hmmm, hmmm, I'm on fire

    Turn on a full alarm
    I'm aflame for all of her charm
    Oh, little fire truck can't you see
    Can't you see what she's doing to me
    She's got me burning up like a paper cup
    Hmmm, hmmm, I'm on fire

    And when my baby kisses me
    I start shakin' like a ship on a stormy sea
    And when I hear her say
    I'm gonna love you each and every day
    I start to roast, like toast, oh eeeeeee!

    Help me mister fireman, please
    You know I'm burning from my head to my knees
    I'm aflame with such a burning desire
    The little girl set my soul on fire
    She got me burning up like a paper cup
    Eeeeee! I'm on fire

    And when my baby kisses me
    I start shakin' like a ship on a stormy sea
    And when I hear her say
    I'm gonna love you each and every day
    I start to roast, just like toast, oh eeeeeee!

    Help me mister fireman, please
    You know I'm burning from my head to my knees
    I'm aflame with such a burning desire
    That little girl sets my soul on fire
    She's got me burning up like a paper cup
    Eeeeee! I'm on fire "

    When I was asked to play piano with a group in 1958, this was one of their numbers. I had never heard of Jerry Lee until the lead singer played this on an LP. Been a fan ever since. Rock on!

    This song was going to bring back Jerry Lee Lewis in the '60s, but thanks to the Beatles coming back to America the night they were going to release it, the radio stations have all changed their playlists, so Jerry Lee never would've fit in.
