House Burning Down - The Jimi Hendrix Experience
Yeah
Said hey
Hey said that
Hey
Look at the sky runt a hell-fire red
Somebody's house is burnin'
Down down down down
Down down yeah

Well I asked my friend
Where is that black
smoke comin' from
He just coughed and
changed the subject
And said uh
well I think it might snow some
So I left him sippin' his tea
And I jumped In my
chariot and rode off to see
Just why and
who could it be this time
Yeah yea yeah yeah
Sisters and brothers daddies
mothers standin' around cryin'
When I reached the scene the
flames were making a ghostly whine
So I stood on my horse's back
and I screamed without a whack
I say oh baby why did you
burn you brother's house down
Hey
Hey
Hey go get me something
Hey
Look at the sky turn a
hell-fire red lord
Somebody's house is burning
Down down down down
Look at the sky run a
hell-fire red lord
Somebody's house is burning
Down down
down down down

Well someone stepped
from the crowd
He was nineteen miles high
He shouts we're tired
and disgusted
So we paint red through the sky
I say the truth is straight ahead
So don't burn you self instead
Try to learn instead of burn
Hear what I say
Yeah yeah
So I finally rode away
But I'll never forget that day
Cause when I reached the valley
I looked way down 'cross the way
A giant boat from space
Landed with eerie grace
And came and take
all the dead away
Hey
Hey
Hey
Hey what'd I say
Look at the sky turn a
hell-fire red lord
Somebody's house is burning
Down down down down
Look at the sky turn a
hell-fire red lord
Somebody's house is burning
Down down down down
Look at the sky turn
look at the sky turn a
hell-fire red

Ooo ooo ooo
Ooo ooo ooo
Ooo ooo ooo
Come on baby
