The Collins Kids, "Great Balls of Fire" (Western Ranch Party, 1958)

Thank you my friend CW5 Jack Cardwell for sharing the music video of The Collins Kids (Larry & Lorrie Collins) performing a cover of Jerry Lee Lewis's "Great Balls of Fire" on the "Western Ranch Party" TV Show, 1958.

"Great Balls of Fire" written by Jerry Lee Lewis
Lyrics
"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!

I laughed at love cause I thought it was funny
But you came along and moooooved me honey
I've changed my mind
This love is fine
Goodness gracious, great balls of fire!

Kiss me baby
Mmmm feels good
Hold me baby
Let me love you like a lover should
You're fine, so kind
I'm gonna tell this world that you're mine mine mine mine

I chew my nails and I twiddle my thumbs
I'm getting nervous but it sure is fun
C'mon baby, you drive me crazy
Goodness gracious, great balls of fire!

(piano solo)

Well kiss me baby
Mmmm feels good
Let me love you like a lover should
You're fine, so kind
I'm gonna tell this world that you're mine mine mine mine

I chew my nails and I twiddle my thumbs
I'm real nervous but it sure is fun
C'mon baby, drive me crazy
Goodness gracious, great balls of fire!"
