Runnin' Through The Fire

John Cafferty & the Beaver Brown Band

I got smokestack lightning 
Runnin’ through my veins 
Trouble hangin’ round my neck 
It's like a ball & chain 

Gotta be more than this to being alive 
Everyday spittin’ out nine to five 
Every night runnin’ all over this town 
Comin’ home feelin’ no pain 

I got a hunger and cold desire 
Someday it’s gonna take me higher 
Just another small flame 
Just runnin’ through the fire 
Just another small flame 
Just runnin’ through the fire 

Runnin’ through the fire 
Baby, it’s gonna get hot 
Runnin’ through the fire 
Honey, if you're ready or not 
Runnin’ through the fire 
Honey, any way you turn 
Runnin’ through the fire 
Baby, you're gonna get burned 

I’m rollin’ down the alleyway 
Headin’ for the neon lights 
I got a soul full of stuggling 
Need a little mercy tonight 

This world’s asking just a little too much 
Honey, I need a lovin’ tender touch 
Just move your body close to mine 
Make everything alright 

I got a hunger and cold desire 
Someday it’s gonna take me higher 
Just another small flame 
Runnin’ through the fire 
Just another small flame 
Runnin’ through the fire 

Runnin’ through the fire 
Baby, it’s gonna get hot 
Runnin’ through the fire 
Honey, if you're ready or not 
Runnin’ through the fire 
Baby, any way you turn 
Runnin’ through the fire 
Baby, you're gonna get burned 


Runnin’ through the fire 
Honey, it’s gonna get hot 
Runnin’ through the fire 
Baby, if you're ready or not 
Runnin’ through the fire 
Honey, any way you turn 
Runnin’ through the fire 
Baby, you're gonna get burned 

Runnin’ through the fire 
Honey, it’s gonna get hot 
Runnin’ through the fire 
Baby, if you're ready or not 
Runnin’ through the fire 
Honey, any way you turn 
Runnin’ through the fire 
Baby, you're gonna get burned
