Testo Fire Down Below - Richie Havens

Fire Down Below

Here comes old Rosie, she's lookin' mighty fine
Here comes hot Nancy, she's steppin' right on time
There goes the street light bringin' on the night
Here comes the men, faces hidden from the light
All through the shadows
They come and they go

With only one thing in common
They got the fire down below

Here come the rich man in his big old limousine
Here come the poor man, all he's got to have is green
Here come the banker, lawyer, cop
One thing for certain, it ain't never gonna stop
Hey, in the shadows
Watch 'em come and watch 'em go, yeah

With only one thing in common
They got the fire down below

It happens out in Vegas, it happens in Moline
On the blue blood streets of Boston, up in Berkeley, out in Queens
It happened yesterday, it's gonna happen tonight
Somewhere there's somebody ain't treatin' somebody right

And he's looking out for Rosie, she's lookin' mighty fine
And he's looking out for Nancy, she'll be right on time
Ooh, those street lights
Ooh, through the midnight
All through the shadows
Watch 'em come and watch 'em go, yes

With only one thing in common
They got the fire down below

Well, it happens out in Vegas, in happens in Moline
In the blue blood streets of Boston, up in Berkeley, out in Queens
Happened yesterday, it's gonna happen tonight
Somewhere there's somebody ain't treatin' somebody right

Here comes old Rosie, she's lookin' mighty fine
There goes Nancy, she's steppin' right on time
Ooh, those street lights
Oh, through the midnight
All through the shadows
Watch 'em come and watch 'em go

With only one thing in common
They got the fire down below
With only one thing in common
They got the fire down below
There's only one thing in common
They got the fire down below

Fire down below, fire down below
Fire, fire down below, fire down below
Fire, fire down below, fire down below
Fire down below, fire, fire down below
Fire, fire, fire down below
They got the fire down below
They got the fire down below
