Get the baby and the bath water pack it up |
|
Get the truck in the backyard and back it up |
|
It's burnin' down |
|
Tie it off with a little piece of clothes line |
|
Pile it up now if something falls we'll never mind |
|
It's burnin' down |
|
Run along the river, get your brother and your sister |
|
Hurry up now and don't stop for nothing, mister |
|
Burnin' down |
|
Dear mother, it's moving below the ridge |
|
Dear father, it's coming across the bridge |
|
It's burnin' down |
|
Dust to dust and ashes to ashes |
|
Hear the road, feel the heat that's what fast is |
|
It's burnin' down |
|
Tires scream, children quiet and wild eyed |
|
Can't get far enough away from the mountain side |
|
It's burnin' down |
|
Dear mother, it's moving below the ridge |
|
Dear father, it's coming across the bridge |
|
It's burnin' down, burnin' down |
