Michael Stanley Band: Fire in the hole lyrics

Michael Stanley Band

Fire in the hole

In a mining town in West Virginia

In the year of 1910

The boys cut at the heart of the mountain

They been cuttin' since God knows when

But today's just a little bit different

Something down there's out of control

Somebody yells...

  Fire in the hole (fire)

  Somebody yellin', fire in the hole (fire)

  Somebody yellin', fire in the hole (fire)

  Somebody yellin', there's a fire in the hole

And the word spread through the mountain

The heads turn and children cry

Black smoke porin' out of eleven

Take over the coal town sky

And the company men are runnin'

And the screams they make your blood run cold

They run so cold...

  Fire in the hole (fire)

  Somebody yellin', fire in the hole (fire)

  Somebody yellin', fire in the hole (fire)

  Somebody yellin', there's a fire in the hole

In a mining town of West Virginia

In the year of 1910

Eighty-seven men went down

Now nobody comin' back again

And today just ain't that different

Down in the darkness it's your soul

And somebody yellin'...

  Fire in the hole (fire)

  Somebody yellin', fire in the hole (fire)

  Somebody yellin', fire in the hole (fire)

  Somebody yellin', there's a fire in the hole

  Someone yellin', fire in the hole (fire)

  Somebody yellin', fire in the hole (fire)

  Somebody yellin', fire in the hole (fire)

  Somebody yellin', there's a fire in the hole

  There's a fire in the hole

     Fire in the hole

  There's a fire in the hole

     Fire in the hole

  There's a fire in the hole

     Fire in the hole

  There's a fire in the hole

     Fire in the hole
