Tommy James - Ball Of Fire Lyrics
Scarlet hovering my head
Pretty and red
Pretty and red
Flowers dying in their bed
Oh, yeah
Why is everyone crying?
Mmm, hmm
Look up children, look and see
Shining down on you and me, yeah
And the ball of fire in the sky, yeah
Keeps watching over you and I, way up high
And the ball of fire in the sky, come on
Keeps watching over you and I, way up high
Tumbling down
Tumbling down
Oh, can't you hear the angels calling?
Oh, yeah
Listen
Mmm, hmm
Shining through eternity
As it was so it shall be, yeah
And the ball of fire in the sky, yeah
Keeps watching over you and I, way up high, yeah
And the ball of fire in the sky
Keeps watching over you and I, you and I, yes, it does
And the ball of fire in the sky, come on
It keeps watching over you and I, way up high, come on
And the ball of fire in the sky, yeah
Keeps watching over you and I, you and I, way up high
And the ball of fire in the sky, yeah
It keeps watching over you and I, way up high, ho
And the ball of fire in the sky, come on
It keeps watching over you and I, way up high

I always liked this song.Just decided I wanted to hear this.Don"t know why.But here I am.
they had a lot of hits. i think thy had more top tens at the same time with differents songs more than anyone oelse
Absolutely glorious - easily the equal of Crimson and Clover. Two of the greatest psychedelic singles in history! Those were the days/
What a powerful song
Prophetic song---2001--9/11---Never Forget.
This was the only rock album my mother had back In about 1972I was eight years old and I memorized every word to every song,not sure wihat the right album It was but It was one of there greatest hits and there was a picture of Tommy on a bicycle with a pair od stripes pants onx,This Is the music that I heard 50 years ago and I still love It as much now as I did back then.Im also a fairly successful musician now and I must give part of the credit for my successes to Tommy James and the Shondells
We really grew up in the best decade!! I was 16 and buying up all these records every chance I got! The soundtrack of my life!
Love this song
Not just one of their best, but one of the best songs of all time. Please take me back...

Tommy James and The Shondells
"Ball Of Fire"
#19, Octubre de 1969.
It's hard to believe Tommy James and the Shondells were categorized by some as "bubblegum". Perhaps some of his early work could pass as that, but this group, originally from Niles, Michigan, really evolved in an amazing way. The messages and overtones in some of the late Sixties TJ&S were pretty deep. I never get tired of listening!
Lawrence Pavia , if you haven’t read or listen to the audio version of his book I would highly recommend it. I’m listening to the audio version right now about 2/3 of the way done. He’s talking about this song and that’s why I came here to listen to it. It’s a terrific book. And he talks about the bubblegum aspect of the group.
18 people's balls are on fire.

First time I heard this song is when I found out my best friend Chuck Cope shot himself in Sept1969. The song was playing on the radio when I heard the news . RIP Charles, I still remember you.
thatbamadude That is so sad 😭
Beautiful song 🕸🖤🕸✌🕸🔥🕸☮
Hi great song 1969 thank you
I was playing this song while me and my girlfriend had sex while looking at the stars
Beautiful song amazing vocals
i believe it charted #19. the charts were glutted with HIGH QUALITY content in 69 or it would have gone higher, what a year. namath wins the superbowl, john wayne wins best actor, we go to the moon etc. OUT OF SIGHT.
Yes 69 is considered to be the peak and i think that is what partially inspired Bryan Adams song Summer of 69. The years that followed all through the 70's were good also but 69 was the best and the glut started to fade when one music critic noted in the 80's that the Top 40 started to be have a homogeneous , freeze dried feel to it .
I don't see how it would of inspired Sumer of 69.
MIKECNW I Don’t think he’s referring to this song, I think he’s referring to the year. The summer of 69 was a fantastic year. I don’t think he’s referring to this song, I think he’s referring to the whole year. The summer of 69 was a fantastic year. Personally I consider it the first year of the best 15 years of my life.
loved them. wish i could go back to those yearz
They're still jamming....Tommy has his own radio show.
Tommy James and The Shondells are THE BEST!
I WAS SO LUCK TO HAVE BEEN A KID OF THE 60DS AND 70DS AND STILL HAD THE MUSIC OF THE 50DS AROUND THE CREEP THEY PUT OUT TODAY SUCKS
Thinkyouknowmusic on Twitter brought me here.
Love Tommy
love this band x
