Lyrics

I've Got the Fire

[Verse 1]

If you're looking for something that you can keep

Well baby, pass me by

But if you want something that's-a twenty years deep

Oh baby, don't even try

But you want someone to take your soul

Maybe lift you a little bit higher

I've got the fire

[Guitar solo: Dave Murray]

AAAAHH!

[Guitar solo: Adrian Smith]

[Verse 2]

So you think I'm skinny, don't you sell me cheap

'Cause I'm as long as a country-mile

Some like it wide, I like it deep

Well guess which one's my style

You think you can beat me at my own game

Well babe I say you're a liar

'Cause I've got the fire (Yes I have!)

AAEEEHH got the fire!

(Yeah!)
