Murray McLauchlan - Smoke on the Wind lyrics

I've seen bare rock standing Where the trees once stood Three hundred thousand acres That ain't no good Tried to stop that wildfire When it's burnin' bad And all that I've given Is all that I had. And there's smoke on the wind Blackening the sun Wind holds the warning When the wildfire comes Ain't nothing left When the wildfire's done Smoke on the wind Blackening the sun. I've been so tired I've been steppin' on my feet Been trapped and surrounded In the burning heat I've seen ground fire and crown fire And dug fire breaks And all that I've given Is all that it takes And there's smoke on the wind Blackening the sun Wind holds the warning When the wildfire comes Ain't nothing left When the wildfire's done Smoke on the wind Blackening the sun. When the timber is burning So it lights up the night And the pines blow up Like they were dynamite And the smoke gets so thick You can't see daylight All I'll have given Is all of my life And there's smoke on the wind Blackening the sun Wind holds the warning When the wildfire comes Ain't nothing left When the wildfire's done Smoke on the wind Blackening the sun.
