Fire

Last night the river went calling

Like a train that jumps the tracks

How it roared through the night

Like a vow to never go back

We never knew peace

Will we never know peace?

Are we like a house made of dry grass?

People pass saying It won't last

Last night the river went calling

Howw it pushed thru the awful black

Boats of gold hanging by their fiery stacks

I heard the rivermen cry We will never know peace

Are we like a house made of dry grass?

See the fire and smoke spitting fire and sparks

Are we like a house made of dry grass?

People pass saying It won't last

Last night I dreamed I was falling

Where do we go I said to myself

If I call your name and you answer crying?

We never knew peace Will we never know peace?

See the fire and smoke spitting fire and sparks

Are we like a house made of dry grass?

People pass

It won't last
