"What's Your Name" lyrics - ROBIN TROWER

My momma told me
Not to give in to desire
'Cause baby if you do
You're playin' with fire

I tried, she sighed
Baby you're goin' down
What's your name?
Bright young flame
If it's all the same to you
I'd really like to know your name

When you're brought up right
It makes it kinda hard
To see your good intentions
Go from pure to black and then charred

I lied, she cried
Baby you're goin' down
What's your name?
Bright young flame
If it's all the same to you
I'd really like to know your name

They say that lightning never strikes
In' the same place twice
But if you keep goin', the way that you do
You're gonna need some legal advice

My mama told me
Take a path that's narrow and straight
'Cause a fall can take your whole life
Bend it all out of shape

I failed, she wailed
Baby you're goin' down
What's your name?
Bright young flame
If it's all the same to you
I'd really like to know your name

What's your name?
Bright young flame
If it's all the same to you
I'd really like to know your name
