[Intro] B A B A

[Verse 1] B A  Long distance runner, what you standin there for? B A  Get up, get out, get out of the door B A  You're playin cold music on the barroom floor B A  Drowned in your laughter and dead to the core B A  There's a dragon with matches that's loose on the town B A  Takes a whole pail of water just to cool him down

[Chorus] B A Fire! Fire on the mountain! B A Fire! Fire on the mountain! B A Fire! Fire on the mountain! B A Fire! Fire on the mountain!

[Verse 2] B A  Almost ablaze still you don't feel the heat B A  It takes all you got just to stay on the beat B A  You say it's a livin, we all gotta eat B A  But you're here alone, there's no one to compete B A  If mercy's a business, I wish it for you B A  More than just ashes when your dreams come true

[Chorus] B A Fire! Fire on the mountain! B A Fire! Fire on the mountain! B A Fire! Fire on the mountain! B A Fire! Fire on the mountain!

[Solo] B A B A B A B A

[Verse 3] B A  Long distance runner, what you holdin out for? B A  Caught in slow motion in a dash for the door B A  The flame from your stage has now spread to the floor B A  You gave all you had. why you wanna give more? B A  The more that you give, the more it will take B A  To the thin line beyond which you really can't fake

[Chorus] B A Fire! Fire on the mountain! B A Fire! Fire on the mountain!

[Fade Out] B A Fire! Fire on the mountain! B A Fire! Fire on the mountain!
