We've driven all day and most of the night
From the Galloway hills through the city lights
Just fall of the road and not much was said
Pulled off the gas when the needle touched red
Sitting here I watch the flames
They climb higher when they take me again
And sometimes I remember when
The memories I can trust them
Build a fire
They're gonna build a fire
Gonna build a fire
They're gonna build a fire
Pulled up to rest, let the engine cool a while
Opened the beans, gathered wood for the fire
I hum this tune to all the girls I've known
Should I care about the chances I've blown?
But don't forget there's less to life
Than blowing your mind in some trashed out car
Don't forget you'll die the death
Of a hero with nothing less
Build a fire
They're gonna build a fire
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
When daylight breaks we'll be down that road
Rockman and me with a lighter load
We'll stop for a lunch in some taco bar
Lee Marvin on the jukebox – «Wanderin' Star»
But don't forget there's less to life
Than blowing your mind in some trashed out car
Don't forget you'll die the death
Of a hero with nothing less
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
Oooooooh
Oooooooh
