Fire on the Mountain Live at UNI-Dome Cedar Falls IA February 5 1978 by The Grateful Dead Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Long distance runner, what you standin' there for?
Get up, get on, get out of the door
Drowned in your laughter and dead to the core
You're ... on the barroom floor
Dragon with matches loose on the town
Takes a whole pail of water just to cool him down

[Chorus]
Fire! Fire on the mountain!
Fire! Fire on the mountain!
Fire! Fire on the mountain!
Fire! Fire on the mountain!

[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
Long distance runner, with one foot out the door
Caught in slow motion in a fall to the floor
You're playin' cold music on the barroom floor
You gave all you had, why you wanna give morе?
The more that you give, thе more it will take
That thin line beyond which you really can't fake
[Chorus]
Fire! Fire on the mountain!
Fire! Fire on the mountain!
Fire! Fire on the mountain!
Fire! Fire on the mountain!

[Outro]
Fire! Fire on the mountain!
Fire! Fire on the mountain!
Fire! Fire on the mountain!
Fire! Fire on the mountain!
Fire! Fire on the mountain!
Fire! Fire on the mountain!
Fire! Fire on the mountain!
Fire! Fire on the mountain!

[Instrumental]
