We've Got a Fire Songtext
von The Steel Wheels

We′ve got a fire and it burns so freely
They want to control it, they don't know how
They say that it′s freedom, go out and seek it
But they're looking for fences to put up around
They gave me a box and they told me to fill it
Well tell us a story son so we can prepare
I strung up that box and I played them a fable
Now they are all dancing like they never cared
If something that's truer defies the ocean
True is the white lines keep me from you
I′m driving down highways, it′s wind and it's gravel
Now, more than ever, won′t you tell me the truth
Tell me how it was when you were young and alone
Tell me how it was when you were sitting at home
It don't matter much what they think about me


′Cause if you are what you want, then you can be what you'll be
So grab what you can carry and shut up your window
Let′s go and surprise them that we are still here
We live where we wander as long as the wind blows
We'll tell them our stories about freedom and fear
If something that's truer defies the ocean
True is the white lines keep me from you
I′m driving down highways, it′s wind and it's gravel
Now, more than ever, won′t you tell me the truth
If something that's truer defies the ocean
True is the white lines keep me from you
I′m driving down highways, it's wind and it′s gravel
Now, more than ever, won't you tell me the truth
Now, more than ever, won't you tell me the truth
Now, more than ever, I′m gonna tell you the truth
