Let's burn down the cornfield
Let's burn down the cornfield
We can listen to it burn
We'll hide behind the oak tree
Hide behind the oak tree
Stay out of danger 'til I return
Oh, it's so good
On a cold night
To have the fire burning bold and bright
You hide behind the oak tree
Hide behind the oak tree
Stay out of danger 'til I return
Let's burn down the cornfield
Let's burn down the cornfield
We'll make love while it burns
We'll make love while it burns
We'll make love while it burns
