Burn Down the Cornfield

Charlie Musselwhite (born January 31, 1944) is an American electric blues harmonica player and bandleader, one of the non-black bluesmen who came to prominence in the early 1960s, along with Mike Bloomfield and Paul Butterfield. Though he has often been identified as a "white bluesman", he claims Native American heritage. Musselwhite was reportedly the inspiration for Dan Aykroyd's character in the Blues Brothers. more »

Let's burn down the cornfield 
Let's burn down the cornfield 
And we can listen to it burn 

You hide behind the oak tree 
You hide behind the oak tree 
Stay out of danger 'till I return 

Oh, it's so good 
On a cold night 
To have a fire 
Burnin' warm and bright 

You hide behind the oak tree 
You hide behind the oak tree 
Stay out of danger 'till I return 

Let's burn down the cornfield 
Let's burn down the cornfield 
And I'll make love to you while it's burnin
