I was catchin' a ride in the eye of the storm
My heart was a-poundin', my clothes were all torn
When I saw it comin' it was sweepin' the land
Just like fire on the water it was sweepin' the land
Just like fire on the water it was sweepin' the land
It was blowin' and driftin', movin' fast through the town
Picking up speed just when night's comin' down
There was nothin' you can do, can't stop it comin' on
Just like fire on the water you can't stop it comin' on
Just like fire on the water you can't stop it comin' on
I was told when it passes by you better stand back
''Cause it'll burn what don't move and you won't get it back
No army can stop it, can't turn it away
It's got a mind of its own, even picks its own day
It gets what it wants, it don't have any friends
Just like fire on the water it don't have any friends
Just like fire on the water it don't have any friends
It strikes without warning, takes an eye for an eye
It gives you two choices, you live or you die
You can't see what it burns so you can't see where it's been
Just like fire on the water you can't see where it's been
Just like fire on the water you can't see where it's been
I was told when it passes by you better stand back
‘Cause it'll burn what don't move and you won't get it back
It gets what it wants, got a mind of its own
Just like fire on the water gettin' blood from a stone
Just like fire on the water gettin' blood from a stone
Just like fire on the water gettin' blood from a stone
