  • John Mellencamp Paper In Fire Lyrics

           

    She had a dream
    And boy it was a good one
    So she chased after her dream
    With much desire
    But when she get too close
    To her expectations
    Well the dream burned up
    Like paper in fire

    Chorus:
    Paper in fire
    Stinkin
    Paper in fire
    Smokin
    Who
    A man should spend his days
    Do you let them smolder
    Like paper in fire

    He wanted love
    With no involvement
    So he chased the wind
    That
    And the days of vanity
    Went on forever
    And he saw his days burn up
    Like paper in fire

    Chorus:
    Paper in fire
    Stinkin
    Paper in fire
    Smokin
    Who
    A man should spend his days
    Do you let them smolder
    Like paper in fire

    There
    Right across the green fields
    And each generation
    Stares at it from afar
    But we keep no check
    On our appetites
    So the green fields turn to brown
    Like paper in fire

    Chorus:
    Paper in fire
    Stinkin
    Paper in fire
    Smokin
    Who
    A man should spend his days
    Do you let them smolder
    Like paper in fire
