The Fire Down Below

Here comes old Rosie she's looking mighty fine

Here comes hot Nancy she's steppin' right on time

There go the street lights bringin on the night

Here come 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 comes the rich man

In his big long limousine

Here comes the poor man

All you got to have is green

Here comes the banker

And the lawyer and the cop

One thing for certain it ain't never gonna stop

When it all gets too heavy

That's when they come and go and go

With only one thing in common

They got the fire down below

It happens out in Vegas happens in Moline

On the blue blood streets of Boston

Up in Berkeley and out in Queens

And it went on yesterday

And it's going on tonight

Somewhere there's somebody

Ain't treatin' somebody right

And he's looking out for Rosie

She's looking mighty fine

And he's walking the streets for Nancy

And he'll find her everytime

When the street light flicker bringing on the night

Well they'll be slipping into

Darkness slipping out of sight

All through the midnight

Watch 'em come and watch 'em go

With only one thing in common

They got the fire down below

Oh burning down below

It happens out in Vegas it happens in Moline

On the blue blood streets of Boston

Up in Berkeley and out in Queens

And it went on yesterday

And it's going on tonight

Somewhere there's somebody

Ain't treatin' somebody right

And he's looking out for Rosie

She's looking mighty fine

And he's walking the streets for Nancy

And he'll find her everytime

And when the street light

Flicker bringing on the night

Well they'll be slipping into

Darkness slipping out of sight

All through the shadows

Watch 'em come and watch 'em go

Oh they go

With only one thing in common

They got the fire down below

They've got one thing in common

They've got the fire down below

Only got one thing in common

They got the fire down below
