[Verse 1]
You shake my nerves and you rattle my brain
Too much love drives a man insane
You broke my will
But what a thrill
Goodness gracious, great balls of fire!
[Verse 2]
I laughed at love 'coz I thought it was funny
You came along and you moved me, honey
I've changed my mind
This love is fine
Goodness gracious, great balls of fire!
[Chorus]
Kiss me, baby
Mmmmh, it feels good
Hold me, baby
Well, I'm off to love you like a lover should
Oh! You're fine, so kind
Got to tell this world that you're mine, mine, mine, mine
[Verse 3]
I chew my nails and then I twiddle my thumbs
I'm real nervous, but it sure is fun
Come on, baby
You drive me crazy
Goodness gracious, great balls of fire!
[Piano Solo]
[Chorus]
Well, kiss me, baby
Mmmmh, it feels good
Hold me, baby
Well, I'm off to love you like a lover should
You're fine, so kind
Got to tell this world that you're mine, mine, mine, mine
[Verse 3]
I chew my nails and I twiddle my thumbs
Real nervous, but it sure is fun
Come on, baby
You're driving me crazy
Goodness gracious, great balls of fire!
