Build A Fire (Original)

[Verse 1] We've driven all day and most of the night From the Galloway Hills through the city lights Just followed the road, not much was said Filled up with gas when the needle touched the red [Pre-Chorus] Sitting here, I watch the flames They climb higher and they take me again And sometimes I remember when Remember dreams, you can't trust them [Chorus] Build a fire They're gonna build a fire Gonna build a fire They're gonna build a fire [Verse 2] Pulled up to rest, let the engine cool awhile Open the beams, gathered wood for the fire I hummed this tune to all the girls I've known Should I care about the chances I've blown? [Pre-Chorus] But don't forget there's less to life Than blowing your mind in some trashed out car And don't forget to die the death Of a hero with nothing left [Chorus] Build a fire They're gonna build a fire [Instrumental] [Chorus] They're gonna build a fire They're gonna build a fire Build a fire They're gonna build a fire They're gonna build a fire They're gonna build a fire [Verse 3] When daylight breaks, we'll be down that road Rockman and me with a lighter load We'll stop for lunch in some taco bar Lee Marvin on the jukebox, "Wand'rin' Star" [Pre-Chorus] But don't forget there's less to life Than blowing your mind in some trashed out car And don't forget die the death Of a hero with nothing left [Chorus] Build a fire They're gonna build a fire Gonna build a fire Gonna build a fire Build a fire They're gonna build a fire Build a fire They're gonna build a fire [Outro] Ooh
