lyrics

-<Dance by the Fire>-

You can dance me down to the river;
you can wash me and I’ll abide.
You can dip me deep in the water,
but you’ll never get me clean inside.

You can dance me down to the river.
You can dance me down to the river.

You can call me a "taker" not a "giver,"
a thief, [maybe] but not a liar.
Maybe I’m wrong; I’m taking more than givin’.
It isn’t easy; it’s a way to make a livin’.

You can dance me down to the river.
You can dance me down to the river.

Dying David danced by the fire
but it never kept him warm inside.
He lost his way; now he’s not a sinner,
but when you gonna let it slide?
It’s all over; dance by the fire.

You can dance me down to the river;
you can wash me and I’ll abide.
You can dip me deep in the water,
but you’ll never get me clean inside.
Dance by the fire.
It’s alright; it’s alright.
Dance by the fire.
It’s alright; it’s alright.
Dance by the fire.
It’s alright; it’s alright.

You can dance me down to the river.
You can dance me down to the river.
You can dance me down to the river.
{. . . but you’ll never get me clean inside.}
You can dance me down to the river.
Take a minute to hear what I’m sayin’,
‘cause you gotta stay warm inside!

You can dance me down to the river;
you gotta stay warm inside.
Dance by the fire.
You gotta stay warm inside.
Dance by the fire.
You gotta stay warm inside.
Dance by the fire!
