No problem,, Burning text is a great looking special effect and it can be achieved with relative ease in Photoshop. Even a glossy looking surface reflection is easy to pull off. Now lets start the process:-

• First take a black page
• Insert Text what ever u want.
• Now Duplicate both the background and text image by right clicking on them and selecting the duplicate option. And arrange it one by one
• Select the top layer and rotate from the option ; Image / rotate canvas / 90 degree CCW.
• Now select the top layer and then click ; Filters / stylize / wind. [to give wind effect].
• It will ask for rasteriz give ok and it will show optional settings just press ok.
• Again 3 times u have to give the same command ; filters / wind or Ctrl+F.
• [to have a lengthy effect].It will give a wind feel to the image.
• Now u have to rotate back to normal that is ; Image / rotate canvas / 90 degree CW.
• Now go to ; Filters / Blur / Gaussian Blur and press ok in the option box.
• [this will give blur effect which will improve the texture effect]
• Select both the layers usin Ctrl key of layers and press ; Ctrl+E to merge the layer.[merging will make ur work less and easy to handle]
• Now select the top layer and press ; Ctrl+U which is Hue & Saturion shortcut. Select Colorize, give Hue as 34 which is orange color then saturation as 100 then ok [here 34 is standard no for orange color][simillarly u can keep in mind of other colors code][Remember RGB & CMYK will have there own codes]
• Duplicate the top layer. Press ok.Now select the top new layer which has been created now and press ; Ctrl+U which is again Hue/Saturation option. Select Colorize, give saturation as 100 and then ok.
• Now Select the top layer and change the normals to color dodge.
• Select both the layer and press Ctrl+E which is merge option.
• Now take the lower text layer above and change the text color to black. Now double click on the text layer and u will get an option of Layer Style, her u tick the inner glow option and change the color to orange
• Go to ; Filters / Liquify shortcut is Ctrl+shift+x.[in this u can make the image a feel of dragging the colors with finger]
  
• Do How ever u want the effect by clicking and dragging if u r satisfied press ok or cancel it and again u can re do it.

Thats it..
