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 say 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 Ah, 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 Ah fire away Fire away
