Dance Around The Fire

Lenny Kravitz · Other Songs - Lenny Kravitz

Oh, ain't life grand

You're always dreaming about the things you don't have

And oh, you think it's a drag

You're taking life for granted,

You won't live it till you understand

That you ain't ready to rock until you're ready to roll



Put your gun down

And dance around the fire

Under the moonlight

The flames are getting higher

Oh, put your gun down

And dance around the fire

Under the moonlight

The flames are getting higher



I said oh, ain't life a b*tch?

The tricks are turning

I know you're trying to get rich

But hey, you're pulling a scam

You're gonna wake up one day just to find out that it was a sham

When you trade money for love it is gonna get old, yeah



Put your gun down

And dance around the fire

Under the moonlight

The flames are getting higher

Oh, put your gun down

And dance around the fire

Under the moonlight

The devil is a liar



I said oh

Dance around the fire

Under the moonlight

The flames are getting higher

Oh, put your gun down

And dance around the fire

Under the moonlight

The flames are getting higher, higher, higher, yeah



I should be preaching to the choir

The flames are getting higher, higher, higher, yeah



Put your gun down

And dance around the fire

Under the moonlight

The flames are getting higher

Put your gun down

And dance around the fire
