Smoke On The Water Lyrics - Guitar Heaven: The Greatest Guitar Classics Of All Time - Santana

We all came out to Montreux 

On the Lake Geneva shoreline 

To make records with a mobile 

We didn't have much time 

Frank Zappa and the Mothers 

Were at the best place around 

But some stupid with a flare gun 

Burned the place to the ground 

Smoke on the water, fire in the sky 

Smoke on the water 

They burned down the gambling house 

It died with an awful sound 

Funky Claude was running in and out, yeah 

Pulling kids out the ground 

When it all was over 

We had to find another place 

But Swiss time was running out 

It seemed that we would lose the race 

Smoke on the water, fire in the sky 

Smoke on the water 

We ended up at the Grand Hotel 

It was empty cold and bare 

But with the Rolling truck Stones thing just outside 

Making our music there 

With a few red lights and a few old beds 

We make a place to sweat 

No matter what we get out of this 

I know we'll never forget 

Smoke on the water, fire in the sky 

Smoke on the water 

Smoke, smoke, running down 

Fire in the sky 

Smoke, smoke, running down 

Fire, fire in the sky
