Fire Down Below

Bob Seger


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
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 
And 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
