Story Behind The Song
I know this guy who met a girl at the club and fell in love with her in less than 60 seconds.
He was hooked on lust.
It was worse than a drug.
He about lost his mind.
Gave up his Wife, House, Dog, etc...All for the booty.
Such a sad, sad story.

You can't help it baby
Ya know it's true
Well, no complaints
I guess we're through
Cheatin's not my thing
So I'll give it to ya straight
Why question love
No need to tempt fate
The blindside of lust
Works me inside out
I can't understand
What it's all about
Playin' with fire
But, it feels so good
Can't get away
& I know I should
Well, please don't hate me
I know you do
Never knew, what hit me
Came outa the blue
Sorry excuses
Can't help me now
Shoulda thought about it
Runin' all over town
The blindside of lust
Is workin' me inside out
Tell me sweet momma
What it's all about
Playin' with fire
and It feels so good
Can't get away
& I know I should
Music Break (Solo) Here---
Hooked on the rush
I can never get enough
I'm a junkie for her baby
Just can't give it up
Playin' with fire
and it feels so good
Can't get away
& I know I should
Yea, the Devil's done got me
Well, you knew he would
Can't break away
Even though I should
Well, I'm hooked on her love
& I won't give it up
I'm a junkie for her baby
Just can't give it up
Jesus won't ya help me?
Ya know I'm hooked
She had me
From the very first look
Playin' with fire
But, it feels so good
Can't get away
And I know I should
Well, I'm a junkie for her baby
I Just can't give it up
The Devil's got me
I can't get enough
I'm a junkie for her baby
I won't give it up
She had me
From the very first look!!!
