She’s looking mighty fine
Here comes ol’ Nancy,
She’s stepping right on time
There goes the street lights,
Bringing on the night
Well they’ll be skipping
From the darkness,
Faces from the light
All through the shadows,
They come and they go
Only one thing in common
They got the fire down below
Here come the rich man
In his long black limousine
Here come the poor man,
All you got to have is green
Here come the banker,
Lawyer and the cop
One thing’s for certain,
It ain’t never gonna stop
When it all gets too heavy
That’s when they come and they go,
Ah they go
With one thing in common
They got the fire down below
CHORUS:
Well it happens out in Vegas,
Happens in Moline
On the blue-blood streets of Boston
Up in Berkley, out in Queens
Well it went on yesterday,
It’s going on tonight
Somewhere there’s somebody
Ain’t treatin’ somebody right
Well I’m looking out for Rosie
She’s looking mighty fine
She’s walking the streets for Nancy
And finds her every time
And when the street lights flicker
Bringing on the night
Well they’ll be slipping into darkness,
Slipping out of sight
Well through the midnight
They come and they go
Ah they go
Only one thing in common
They got the fire down below
Chorus
When it gets too heavy,
They come and they go
Ah they go
Only one thing in common
They got the fire down below
Only one thing in common
They got the fire down below
Only one thing in common
They got the fire down below
Fire, fire down below
Fire, fire down below
Fire, they got the fire down below
