Fire Away Lyrics

Honey load up your questions
And pick up your sticks and your stones
And pretend I'm a shelter for heartaches that don't have a home
Choose the words that cut like a razor
And all that I'll say is

Fire away
Take your best shot
Show me what you got
Honey, I'm not afraid
Rear back and take aim
And fire away

Well, I wish I could tell you
That I've never been here before
But you know and I know
That I'll always come back for more
Your love might be my damnation
But I'll cry to my grave

Fire away
Take your best shot
Show me what you got
Honey, I'm not afraid
Rear back and take aim
And fire away

Fire away
Take your best shot
Show me what you got
Honey, I'm not afraid
Rear back and take aim
And fire away
Fire away
Fire away
Fire away
