Lyrics Johnny Winter – I Smell Smoke
Text:
I smell smoke
You must be burning me behind my back
I smell smoke
You must be burning me behind my back
But I feel the flame
I found the man spark
In another man’s name, oh yeah!
Just before you spoke
I smell smoke
What can a man do?
When a good girl turns to bad
What can a man do?
When he’s lost everything he ever had
I can’t feel the heat,
But I’m seeing in your eyes
When we’re talkin over
All I get these lies, oh yeah!
Baby it’s no joke
I smell smoke
There’s a heavy price
That I have to pay
Working for you
Every night and day
Deep in the night
When I turn to you
I feel my worst fears
Have come true
I smell smoke
When you think you’re alone
I smell smoke
In the middle of the night
And I know nobody is cooking, yeah…
You can play you down
Hide it with perfume
I smell something burning
And you’re walking through, oh yeah!
Baby it’s no joke
I smell smoke
Oh yeah!
Baby it’s no joke
I smell smoke
I smell smoke x4
