Diamond Rio Big Ol' Fire Lyrics

Written by: Michael Gerald Lunn

One of these days you'll turn around
And wanna get out of this someday town
Well people gonna laugh you know what they'll say
You're never gonna get away
Well there'll be fear and there'll be doubt
But they're just things that'll slow you down
Just put 'em all in a great big pile
And stand back.

And burn, baby like a big ol' fire
Build it up with your one desire
One of these days you just might change their minds
Shine the light, blind 'em by a big ol' fire
A big ol' fire.

And one of these days you'll find someone
Who lights you up like the rising sun
But he's been hurt and he won't feel
Like handin' you a heart of steel
Well don't you run now just you stay You're the one that can melt away
The loneliness down in his heart
Just take him in your arms.

And burn baby like a big ol' fire
Build it up with your one desire
One of these days you just might find the love
You're dreaming of, risin' up a big ol' fire.

And when you get to where you're goin'
All you'll leave behind is the ashes smolderin'
When you find the love you've always wanted
Never let it die.

--- Instrumental ---

And burn, baby like a big ol' fire
Build it up with your one desire
One of these days you just might change their minds
Shine the light, blind 'em by a big ol' fire
A big ol' fire
A big ol' fire
Oh a big ol' fire
Burn big ol' fire...
