Lyrics for Metal Firecracker

Once we rode together in a metal firecracker You told me I was your queen You told me I was your biker You told me I was everything Once I was in your blood And you were obsessed with me You wanted to paint my picture You wanted to undress me You wanted to see me in your future All I ask, don't tell anybody the secrets Don't tell anybody the secrets, I told you All I ask, don't tell anybody the secrets Don't tell anybody the secrets, I told you Once you held me so tight I thought I'd lose my mind You said, "I rocked your world" You said, "It was for all time" You said that "I would always be your girl" We'd put on ZZ Top And turn 'em up real loud I used to think you were strong I used to think you were proud I used to think nothing could go wrong All I ask, don't tell anybody the secrets Don't tell anybody the secrets, I told you All I ask, don't tell anybody the secrets Don't tell anybody the secrets, I told you
