Firecracker

	Firecracker, you waved in the night
	And something that
	I saw was a-flaming
	Your body, it was real in the light
	On the fourth of
	July we were screaming
	Well, I saw the lonely road
	You left and said to me, don't follow‘
	Cause I'll only bring you sorrow
	And on down my lonely road
	You left and
	I just said, no, no, no, no, no
	All I said, no, no, no, no, no
	Well, I'm back in my old town again
	Is there something still alive that
	I left here
	Do you still like the boys on the street?
	I will take you uptown just to see you meet them
	Well, I saw the lonely road
	You left and said to me, don't follow‘
	Cause I'll only bring you sorrow
	And on down my lonely road
	You left and
	I just said, no, no, no, no, no
	All I said, no, no, no, no, no
	You know I've been reading the
	Bible for a change
	Maybe there's something
	I had missed there
	I said, I've seen or
	I've seen some eyes in the rain
	And they creep at my mind and
	I saw you whisper
	But firecracker, you waved in the night
	Something that
	I saw was a-flaming
	Do you feel like we left something here?
	Something worth coming back and claiming
	Well, I saw the lonely road
	You left and said to me, don't follow‘
	Cause I'll only bring you sorrow
	And on down my lonely road
	You left and said to me, don't follow
	You sleep and dream for tomorrow
	And in the deadly night
	You left and said to me, don't follow'
	Cause I'll only bring you sorrow
	And on down my lonely road
	You left and
	I just said, no, no, no, no, no
	Well, I said, no, no, no, no, no

	Firecracker, you waved in the night
