Painted Fire
written by Gene Clark


Now we were sittin' on the wildwood Friday night
drinkin' beer and a-watching that the cops ain't in sight
I know that your mama's uptight, 'cause she don't know where you are

And it's a one, two and you're seventeen
and you know Painted Fire, that you know what I mean
And you know it's all right
Painted Fire
Painted Fire, its all right, its all right
It's all right, its all right, Painted Fire
'cause I know where you are, are, are, are
Painted Fire, it's all right,  it's all right
It's all right, it's all right, Painted Fire
'cause I know where you are, are, are

Now you sent in a picture to a magazine
and you won  a contest, now you're everybody's dream
And I know that you know, exactly what I mean

And it's a one, two and you're seventeen
and you know Painted Fire, that you know what I mean
And you know it's all right
Painted Fire
Painted Fire, its all right, its all right
It's all right, its all right, Painted Fire
'cause I know where you are, are, are, are
Painted Fire, it's all right,  it's all right
It's all right, it's all right, Painted Fire
'cause I know where you are, are, are
