Don’t Let Me Burn

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Yeah yeah yeah yeah eh A blank page is so beautiful So many possibilities we control eh So should I say the truth and burn my soul oh Or should I hide behind my fantasies? I don't know eh [Pre-Chorus] My momma told me one lie is two lies, And three lies is more lies And if you lie and you die, then it's bye bye, boy oh, bye bye She said one lie is two lies is three lies then more lies And if you lie and you die, then it's bye bye, baby, bye bye bye bye [Chorus] So Lord please save me from the fire eh eh eh 'Cause I don't wanna burn I'm way too fine oh oh oh So Father when I die please take me higher And I'll be good, so damn good, don't let me burn Yeah yeah yeah Yeah yeah yeah [Verse 2] I filled my calabash with the palmwine eh eh eh When the moon is up I'm on another high oh I told my girlfriend I ain't got the time Then I hear the same words in the back of my mind It's my mama [Pre-Chorus] And she said one lie is two lies is three lies then more lies If you lie and you die, then it's bye bye, boy oh, bye bye She said one lie is two lies is three lies then more lies And if you lie and you die, then it's bye bye, baby, bye bye bye bye [Chorus] So Lord please save me from the fire (I don't wanna I don't wanna) 'Cause I don't wanna burn I'm way too fine (oh oh oh) So Father when I die please take me higher (Take me high) And I'll be good, so damn good, don't let me burn (I'll be good I'll be good) [Break] Lord have mercy So I just happened to be in a radio interview the other day, you know The radio presenter and me just goofing around like I usually do, you know Then he asked me a question he said 'El what's the biggest lie you've ever told in your life?'
