(originally by Deep Purple

feat. Jacoby Shaddix)





We all came out to Montreux

On the Lake Geneva shoreline

To make records with a mobile

Oh, we didn't have much time



Frank Zappa and the Mothers

Were at the best place around

When some stupid with a flare gun

Burned the place to the ground



Smoke on the water

A fire in the sky

Smoke on the water



It burned down the gambling house

It died with an awful sound

And Funky Claude was running in and out

Yeah, pulling kids out the ground



When it all was over

We had to find another place

And Swiss time was running out

It seemed as we would lose the race



Smoke on the water

A fire in the sky

Smoke on the water



We ended up at the Grand Hotel

It was empty, cold and bare

But with the rolling truck stones thing just outside

Makin' our music there



With a few red lights and a few old beds

We found a place to sweat

No matter what we get out of this

I know, I know I'll never forget



Smoke on the water

A fire in the sky

Smoke on the water



Smoke

Smoke

Running down

A fire in the sky



Smoke

Smoke

Running down



Fire

A fire in the sky
