I knew she was troubled when she asked me to dance
And two songs later things got outta hand
Well she gave a ride in her brand new car
Goin' ninety miles an hour underneath the stars
And we went too far
By the time we pulled over on that old dirt road
We were foggin' up the windows and out of control

I thought I had a heart that could never be tamed
A little bit of love is a dangerous thing
But one small kiss can go a long long way
You gotta be careful when you play this game
A little bit of love is a dangerous thing

We made wild promises in the dark
Then we filled up the tank at the quickle mart
Now you can call us crazy or call it fate
We were headed for Vegas on the interstate
We just couldn't wait
Found a little chapel called the Burnin' Love
Somethin' bout that girl had me all shook up

I thought I had a heart that could never be tamed...

The preacher looked like Elvis and he started to sing
As he reached in his pocket for a pawnshop ring
He said congratulations boy now it's all arranged
A little bit of love is a dangerous thing
But one small kiss can go a long long way
A little bit of love is a dangerous thing
You gotta be careful when you play this game
A little bit of love is a dangerous thing
A little bit of love is a dangerous thing
