Down Where the Fires Burn

Verse 1

Woke up this morning with a ringing in my ears

Boss man hollering bout the wasted years

I got a motor running somewhere down inside

Ain't nobody gonna keep me satisfied

Verse 2

Punched the clock and threw my badge into the sand

Got a one way ticket and a shaking hand

The road is calling and it's calling loud

I'm heading somewhere that the preachers won't allow

Chorus

I'm going down going down going down

Down where the fires never fade

I'm going down going down going down

Ain't no saint and I ain't afraid

Verse 3

Picked up a stranger with a crooked smile

Said son I know a shortcut to the mile

We drank the night and howled at every star

Left our shadows scattered on the tar

Chorus

I'm going down going down going down

Down where the fires never fade

I'm going down going down going down

Ain't no saint and I ain't afraid

Guitar Solo

Bridge

Down down down

Deeper than the devil's own crown

Down down down

I ain't never turning around

Chorus

I'm going down going down going down

Down where the fires never fade

I'm going down going down going down

Ain't no saint and I ain't afraid

Outro

Going down

Going down
