i can't stand to watch my old flame burn

i'm not into going out tonight

cause lately that honky tonk feeling ain't feeling right

my staying home is best for all concerned

'cause i can't stand to watch my old flame burn

'cause i know where she'll be and that's just where i'd go

cause there's a fire in me that i just can't control

when she lights up the dance floor all the cowboys wait their turn

and i can't stand to watch my old flame burn

i'm better off to stay here by myself

'cause i'll heat up if i see her with someone else

one cold hard fact of love that i have learned

i can't stand to watch my old flame burn

'cause i know where she'll be and that's just where i'd go

cause there's a fire in me that i just can't control

when she lights up the dance floor all the cowboys wait their turn

and i can't stand to watch my old flame burn

no

i don't wanna watch my old flame burn
