Live Wire - Martha Reeves & The Vandellas

Live wire, ooh

Live wire, ooh

Live wire, ooh

Live wire, ooh

It’s my birthday

And he forgot again

Every time we date

He’s always late

Tired of abuses and excuses

I’ve made up my mind

Gonna tell him this time

We’re through, yeah

But everything I plan to say

Just seems to fade away

Every time I see his face

My eyes light up Sparks start to flying

Cause he’s a live wire

A real live wire

He’s like a bolt of lightning

That sets my soul afire

Sweet kisses are his alibis

And that’s, that’s

Where my weakness lies

Though I plan and rehearse

Things I want to say

The words never, never

Come my way

Cause everything I plan to say

Just seems to fade away

Every time I see his face

My eyes light up Sparks start to flying

Cause he’s a live wire

Like a bolt of lightning

That sets my soul afire

He’s like a live wire

Real live wire

A bolt of lightning

My eyes light up, yeah

Sets my soul afire

He’s like a live wire

A real live wire

A bolt of lightning

Yeah, live wire

My eyes light up, yeah
