INTRO

COUPLET
We all came out to Montreux
On the Lake Geneva shoreline
To make records with a mobile, yeah
We didn’t have much time now
Frank Zappa and the Mothers
Were at the best place around
But some stupid with a flare gun
Burned the place to the ground

REFRAIN
Smoke on the water, a fire in the sky
Smoke on the water

COUPLET
They burned down the gambling house
It died with an awful sound
Funky Claude was running in and out
He was pulling kids out the ground now
When it all was over
Find another place
Swiss time was running out
It seemed that we would lose the race

REFRAIN
Smoke on the water, a fire in the sky
Smoke on the water

MUSIQUE MUSIQUE MUSIQUE MUSIQUE

COUPLET
We ended up at the Grand Hotel
It was empty, cold and bare
The Rolling truck Stones thing just outside
Huh, making our music there now
With a few red lights and a few old beds
We made a place to sweat
No matter what we get out of this
I know, I know we’ll never forget

REFRAIN
Smoke on the water, a fire in the sky
Smoke on the water
