Lake Of Fire

Nirvana · Unplugged In New York [1994]

Where do bad folks go when they die?

They don't go to heaven where the angels fly

They go to a lake of fire and fry

See 'em again 'till the fourth of July



I knew a lady who came from Duluth

She got bit by a dog with a rabid tooth

She went to her grave just a little too soon

And flew away howling on the yellow moon



Where do bad folks go when they die?

They don't go to heaven where the angels fly

They go to a lake of fire and fry

See 'em again 'till the fourth of July



The people cry and the people moan

They look for a dry place to call their home

Try to find some place to rest their bones

While the angels and the devils try to make 'em their own



Where do bad folks go when they die?

They don't go to heaven where the angels fly

They go to a lake of fire and fry

See 'em again 'till the fourth of July
