(Intro)



We all came down from montraux,on the lake geneva shoreline

To make records with a mobile,we didn't have much time

Frank Zeffer and among others,were at the best place around

Till some stupid with a flaregun,he burned the place to the ground

Smoke on the water,fire in the sky,smoke on the water



They burnt down the gamblin house,it died with an awful sound

Funky claude was runin in and out,pulin kids from the ground

When it all was over,we had to find another place



Swiss time was runin out fast,we're gona lose our race

Smoke on the water,fire in the sky,smoke on the water



(Guitar Solo)



We ended up at the grand hotel,it was empty cold and bare

With the rolling truck stones just outside,we made our music there

A few old red lights and a few old beds,we made a place to sweat

Well no matter what we get out of this,well i know we'll never forget

Smoke on the water,fire in the sky,smoke on the water



(outro)

Smoke On The Water (AC/DC Cover)

AC/DC delivers a powerful rendition of Deep Purple's iconic hard rock anthem, channeling the band's signature blend of blues-inflected riffs and driving rhythms. While the original composition is widely recognized for its atmospheric intro and anthemic chorus, this version recontextualizes the track within the Australian rock canon. The recording captures the raw energy typical of AC/DC's catalog, featuring the band's characteristic dual-guitar interplay and Tom Araya's gritty vocals. This cover serves as a testament to the song's enduring appeal and the band's ability to reinterpret classic material with their distinct sonic identity, fitting seamlessly into their extensive discography of high-energy rock recordings.
