1
Imagine Houston in the middle of July
2
Hotter than a pistol on a Saturday night
3
Your baby's on the front porch with a bamboo fan
4
As you pull up to the curb in your black sedan
5
It don't take her long she knew you were comin'
6
With a slam of the screen she's off and she's runnin'
7
Now she's sittin there beside you you forget about the heat
8
You leave your troubles at the curb and take your passion to the street
9
With a steam-heated love
10
With a burning desire and a tropical fire in your blood
11
With a steam-heated love
12
That hurricane feelin' it's got you reelin',
13
You can't even wait for the flood!
14
You put your arm around her and you tell her the news
15
And the white lines and the freeways they twist like a fuse
16
While the Pilgrims from the East with their U-Haul trailors
17
Build cities out of canvas just like shipwrecked sailors
18
And the asphalt sweats while the welders weld
19
And your wheels are hotter than the hinges of hell
20
And you better watch your step if you're just standing around
21
Because the buildings ain't constructed they erupt from the ground
22
Chorus
23
Outro
24
The parking lots are steaming with a street sweepers mist
25
Just the perfect atmosphere to steal a little kiss
26
And you notice that the moon has been coated with chrome
27
As it begins to rise beside the Astrodome.
