Itâs early in September and the woods are dry as tinder
Blow-down trees and Ponderosa Pine
Thereâs a danger in the air, a premonition and a prayer
From the dead wood slopes up to the timberline
In the valley far below all the fire fighters know
Thereâs a thunder storm building in the sky
The minutes turn to hours high in the lookout towers
Waiting for the flash of a lightning strike
Fire! The mountainâs burninâ down
Chorus:
Grab a shovel or an axe or a hose or a cable
Come all you fire fighters, come if youâre able
Smoke chaser, water bomber, get up and go
Thereâs a wildfire burninâ out of control
Fire! The mountainâs burninâ down
Sparks are flyinâ high and thereâs black smoke in the sky
The bushland is a burninâ wall of fire
All the valleyâs burninâ down, flames are threatening the town
Threatening our houses homes and lives
Can you feel the scorching heat? See the ashes in the street?
Here comes the call âEvacuate the town!â
Thereâs fear and thereâs despair, people worried everywhere
Stop the fire before it burns us down
Fire! The mountainâs burninâ down
Chorus
Bridge:
Throughout all time itâs been a blessing and a curse
Prometheus brought fire to the earth!
Fire! The mountainâs burninâ down
In answer to our call the rain begins to fall
The winds change and blow the other way
Fire fighters double tough and a little help from up above
And the raging forest fire is held at bay
Now the land is black and burned and a lesson has been learned:
Beware of the lightning in the sky
Throughout the timberland keep every fire station manned
And be ready for the day you hear the cry:
Fire! The mountainâs burninâ down
Chorus
Fire! The mountainâs burninâ down
Fire! The mountainâs burninâ down
