Mind your step as you make your way Through the church in to this world of sand Picture an angle with a cigarette burnin With a long slow drag She welcomes you in where youâll be Dancing in the low light Sweat dripping down like a dew Scratchin metal and a cry and moan Riding in a bottle in the back of a room
Fire, fire from the inside Rhythm, like a hurricane rain Mercy, comes after midnight While youâre washing me down with the sound of your National Steel
Took its smile on a wild rose Born in the heat of the south Your kisses they went to my head like a whiskey She was a bootlegged love with her stockings rolled down People cried to cry as a wolf starts to howl, howled like a midnight train Roll on, roll on, rolled like a river A shot of burning silver pounding through my feet like fire
Fire, fire from the inside Rhythm like a hurricane rain Mercy, comes after midnight While youâre washing me down with the sound of your National Steel
Mind your step as you make your way Through the church in to this world of sand Picture an angle with a cigarette burnin With a long slow drag She welcomes you in where youâll be Dancing in the low light With the sweat dripping down like a dew Scratchin metal with a cry and moan And riding in a bottle at the back of the room
Fire, fire from the inside Rhythm, like a hurricane rain Mercy, comes after midnight Wash me down, washin me down, Fire, from the inside Rhythm, like a hurricane rain Mercy, comes after midnight Wash me down with the sound of your National Steel
