Paper In Fire - John Mellencamp[00:00:19]

She had a dream[00:00:28]

And boy it was a good one[00:00:29]

So she chased after her dream[00:00:34]

With much desire[00:00:36]

But when she got too close[00:00:41]

To her expectations[00:00:43]

Well the dream burned up[00:00:47]

Like paper in fire[00:00:50]

Paper in fire[00:00:54]

Stinkin' up the ashtrays[00:00:55]

Paper in fire[00:00:57]

Smokin' up the alleyways[00:00:59]

Who's to say the way[00:01:01]

A man should spend his days[00:01:03]

Do you let them smolder [00:01:04]

Like paper in fire[00:01:07]

He wanted love[00:01:12]

With no involvement[00:01:14]

So he chased the wind[00:01:19]

That's all his silly life required[00:01:20]

And the days of vanity[00:01:26]

Went on forever[00:01:27]

And he saw his days burn up[00:01:31]

Like paper in fire[00:01:34]

Paper in fire[00:01:38]

Stinkin' up the ashtrays[00:01:39]

Paper in fire[00:01:41]

Smokin' up the alleyways[00:01:43]

Who's to say the way[00:01:44]

A man should spend his days[00:01:46]

Do you let them smolder [00:01:48]

Like paper in fire[00:01:51]

There is a good life[00:02:26]

Right across the green field[00:02:28]

And each generation[00:02:33]

Stares at it from afar[00:02:35]

But we keep no check[00:02:40]

On our appetites[00:02:42]

So the green fields turn to brown[00:02:46]

Like paper in fire[00:02:48]

Paper in fire[00:02:52]

Stinkin' up the ashtrays[00:02:54]

Paper in fire[00:02:55]

Blow down the alleyways[00:02:57]

Who's to say the way[00:02:59]

A man should spend his days[00:03:01]

Do you let them smolder [00:03:02]

Like paper in fire[00:03:05]

Paper in fire[00:03:09]

Stinkin' up the ashtrays[00:03:11]

Paper in fire[00:03:12]

Blow down the alleyways[00:03:14]

Who's to say the way[00:03:16]

A man should spend his days[00:03:17]

Do you let them smolder [00:03:19]

Like paper in fire[00:03:22]

Paper in fire[00:03:36]
