We all came out to Montreux Off the lake to leave the shoreline To make records with our mobile We didn't have much time Frank Zappa and my mother Were at the best place around But some stupid river bankers Found their place to the crowd Smoke on the water A fire in the sky Smoke on the water They burned down the gambling house He died with another sound Donkey Kong was running in and out He was pulling thieves out the crowd When it all was over He had to find another place But Swiss Tide was running out It seemed that we would lose the race Come on, here we go! Smoke on the water A fire in the sky Smoke on the water Come on, yeah! Here we go! I see you crying I see you crying guitar solo guitar solo We ended up at the Grand Hotel He was empty, cold and bare The river rolling tracks Those things just outside Making our music there We had a few red lights And a few old men We had a place to swim No matter what I get out of this I know we'll never forget Smoke on the water A fire in the sky Smoke on the water All right, yeah! It's coming down Burning down Down to the ground, yeah It's human But I see it Yeah, it's coming down to the ground guitar solo guitar solo guitar solo guitar solo guitar solo applause guitar solo Can we have everything a little louder than everything else? applause
