Bad Company - Burnin' Sky Lyrics






The sky is burnin' I believe my soul's on fire,
You are, I'm learning, the key to my desire.

Waiting for the van to arrive,
The prisoners were lined
up outside.
Jumped a wall, hitcheda ride, and
now I'm here
to say;
Love you, baby, anyway, oh, yeah.
The sky is burnin' I believe my soul is on fire,
You are, I'm learning, the key to my desire.

Ran across the country fields,
In all terrain, they had guns and dogs and everything.
Swam a river try'n to lose my trail,
But they caught me, under the bridge. Oh yeah!

The sky is burnin' I believe my soul's on fire,
You are, I'm learning, the key to my desire.

Oh, yeah.

The sky is burnin' I believe my soul's on fire,
You are, I am learning, the key to my desire.

The judge said, 'this man's a danger to humanity,
We're gonna lock him up and throw away the key'
Now, baby, your love has sent me to jail
But I'd rather die than see you with another man

It's burnin' baby, mm, mm; I believe my souls on fire

I believe my souls on fire,
Working on the railroad, every day
But they can't keep me here
And I'm not gonna stay
I got to get outta this place
I'll see you, baby.

It's burnin', yeah, it's burnin'.
I believe my souls on fire,
Keep on burnin',
Ah, yeah, yeah, ah, oh, oho. Keep on burnin'

    I read somewhere that Mick Jagger said that in his opinion, Paul Rodgers had The true Rock n Roll voice. As much as I love Mick & the Boys, I have to agree with Mick's statement. Paul Rodgers has a beautiful voice, still to this day. And it was made for Rock n Roll. Cyndy Lou, here.

    They just don’t make ‘me like that anymore. And that is too bad.

  53. b.... c....

    Excellent, my cheap beer resources are depleted, help if you can, DG

  54. C.... ....

    It just oozes sexy, but it's so outlaw at the same time. I guess "outlaw" and "sexy" sums up Bad Company's style pretty well.

    I was about 7 years old listening to this and believe it or not I was smoking a joint with all the older people at the drive in. I quit weed 10 years later progressed to cocaine and then to meth . Than I got a pilots license and flew drugs for the cartel. Got caught 750 lbs and 4 illegals in 2012 . Did 3 years. I am now a preacher

  63. L.... S....

    They should have called themselves Badass Co... The key to my desire... That's what I'm saying

  64. S.... Z....

    Still a catchy song after all these years....Brings back the memories.

  65. R.... W....
