Fire and the Flame Songtext
von The Del McCoury Band

With a throw and a roll
It could take control
And gamble us away

Following the fool
We′re sliding in the groove
And I expect that's where we′ll stay

I'm telling you, it's not a game
Play with the fire and you′ll live with the flame
Hey now, there′s nothing new
I'm damned, if I don′t
And I'm damned, if I do

There′s a road that you take
And there's the one you leave alone
There′s a view of the highway
In my happy home


I say that I love you
While I said goodbye
You can part and remember
With a smile or a sigh

I'm telling you, it's not a game
Play with the fire and you′ll live with the flame
Hey now, there′s nothing new
I'm damned, if I don′t
And I'm damned, if I do

Hard to be leavin′
Impossible to stay
The road that we took
Revealed the one we have to take

You kneel in the sanctuary
And pray forever more
But when you fly from the cage
Don't forget to lock the door

I′m telling you, it's not a game
Play with the fire and you'll live with the flame
Hey now, there′s nothing new
I′m damned, if I don't
And I′m damned, if I do
