Smoke on the Water Songtext
von Bob Wills and His Texas Playboys

There will be a sad day comin′ for the souls of all mankind
They must answer to the people, and it's troublin′ their minds
Everybody who must fear them will rejoice on that great day
When the powers of dictators shall be taken all away

There'll be smoke on the water, on the land and the sea
When our army and navy overtakes the enemy
There'll be smoke on the mountains where the heathen gods stay
And the sun that is shinin′ will go down on that day


Hirohito, ′long with Hitler, will be ridin' on a rail
Mussolini′ll beg for mercy, as a leader he has failed
But there'll be no time for pity when the screamin′ eagle fly
That will be the end of Axis, they must answer with their lives

There'll be smoke on the water, on the land and the sea
When our army and navy overtakes the enemy
There′ll be smoke on the mountains where the heathen gods stay
And the sun that is shinin' will go down on that day

There'll be smoke on the water, on the land and the sea
When our army and navy overtakes the enemy
There′ll be smoke on the mountains where the heathen gods stay
And the sun that is shinin′ will go down on that day
