Today is the birthday of an amazing woman by the name of Dolly Parton. This song was written and performed by her and released in 1978.    
 
In addition to the standard 7-inch single, this extended 12-inch single titled Dance with Dolly was released, which included an extended dance remix of Baby I'm Burning backed with an extended dance remix of I Wanna Fall in Love. Parton frequently performs "Baby I'm Burnin'" in concert, often using it as her opening number. She also used the song as the theme to her 1987–1988 television series Dolly.

Billboard reviewed the single and called the it "a high-energy change of pace for Parton." The review went on to say Parton's vocals "punch against the cooking groove of a track" which is "highlighted by horns and syn drums." Billboard reviewed the single again the following week, this time calling the song "a fiery rocker" and said that it had "a disco edge at times." They added that "Parton's crispy, high pitched vocals add to the rockish feel." Cashbox gave a positive review of the single, saying that the double-sided release "should cover all the bases." They compared Baby I'm Burning to Way Down by Elvis Presley and conclude by saying that both sides "should receive much airplay."

I Wanna Fall in Love is funk at its best with a whole lotta rockin' going on which makes for some great dancin', however, the lyrics are deep:           
 

I Wanna Fall in Love
 
A different lover ev'ry day
Same old book just a diff'rent page
Same old lines in the same old play
I've got to find somebody I can love all the way
I wanna fall in love, someone that I can live with
I wanna fall in love, someone to take and give with
I wanna fall in love, someone I can be real with
I wanna fall in love

I want someone to be just mine
Someone to be with all the time
A real true love is hard to find
And I don't know where I'll find him
But I've got to keep on tryin' cause

I wanna fall in love, if you hear me, listen to me
I wanna fall in love, I'm undone so come and do me
I wanna fall in love, if you got love, give it to me

Love, I wanna fall in love, someone to really need me
I wanna fall in love, someone to really please me
I wanna fall in love, when it hurts, someone to ease me
I wanna fall in love
I wanna fall in love, someone to spend my life with
I wanna fall in love, someone to fuss and fight with
I wanna fall in love, someone to make it right with
I wanna fall in love
