Ya came on like a tidal wave
Drowned me in sweet whispers an' wine
And now you're hesitatin'
Give excuses 'bout you needin' more time
(But this I know), you' got my body rockin'
(Don't wanna take it slow), tell me now

(If ya can't stand the heat)
(Get out of my fire)
(If ya can't stand the heat)
(Get out!)

Ya say your heart's been broken
But that don't mean a thing when it comes ta me
What you see is what you get
So forget about your history
(Don't stop there)
Finish what you started
(It's not fair) ta lead me on

If ya can't stand the heat
You better (get out of my fire)
If ya (like what ya see)
Don't hold back your desire, ah don't hold back - hold back
(Make up your mind)
We're down to the wire
So if ya (can't stand the heat)

I can't wait forever
While you get yourself together
What's it gonna be, (what's it gonna be baby)
Enough of all your talkin'
Baby get those legs a-walkin'
(Over ta me)

(But this I know), you' got my body rockin'
(Don't wanna take it slow), tell me now

If ya can't stand the heat then get out of my (fire...)
(If ya can't stand the heat, get out of my fire)
Now if ya (like whatcha see)
Don't hold back your desire, you' got ta let it go
(Make up your mind)
We're down to the wire, and you're runnin' out o' time

So (if ya can't stand the heat)
Oh if ya can't stand the heat
Oh if ya (can't stand the heat)
'Cause I'm burnin' up
Oh (if ya can't stand the heat) you better
(Get out of my fire)
(Get out!)
