Set out from Saint Joe on no ordinary journey
Headed down to New Orleans, working in the skin game
But when I saw you, down by the muddy river
I had to have you, so I became your prisoner
It's been and long time and things have gotten crazy
I never thought that it could turn out this way
I've got the notion, I'd swim the ocean for your love
It's not devotion, it's just this burning in my heart
Chorus:
I'm burning, burning, burning with desire
Burning, captive of your fire
It won't be easy telling all the folks at home
They won't believe me and they won't like it at all
I never thought that I could turn my back on them
It's just this burning, it's just this burning from within
Chorus
