Ooh baby, you don't mean to start A fire baby, get right out my heart A burning fire, right inside my heart Ooh baby, get right out my heart Ooh baby, you don't mean to start A fire baby, get right out my heart A burning fire, right inside my heart Ooh baby, get right out my heart Ooh baby, you don't mean to start A fire baby, get right out my heart A burning fire, right inside my heart Ooh baby, get right out my heart Ooh baby, you don't mean to start A fire baby, get right out my heart A burning fire, right inside my heart Composer: David Ijishakin Produced by Jaspo and Akin Soul Programmed by Jaspo Personnel: Steve Holmes on Keyboard, Jaz Lee on Saxophone, Oli Cripps on Trumpet, David Ijishakin on Keyboard and Trombone.
