Hear me there is an evil among us
We've got to put the devil in his place
Slap him in the face
Can't you see that we must set it free
Or it's likely to destroy us
Build a fire burn the liar take the evil down
Shout the word let every person hear
Only those of evil need to fear
CHORUS:
Children gather 'round the burning fire let it cleanse the soul
Children gather 'round the burning fire let it cleanse your soul
Demons, demons from hell I command thee we've got to free
This woman from her pain let her breathe again
I believe that with one sweet reprieve
We can save her from disaster
What is learned from her bones charred and burned
Who will save her soul
Save me I am afraid of the fire
I never did no one any harm no cause for alarm
If I bleed then I only succeed in proving your suspicion
Sink or swim I'm as guilty as sin what more can I say
