[00:00:00] Paper In Fire - John Mellencamp

[00:00:00] Written by：John Mellencamp

[00:00:28] She had a dream

[00:00:29] And boy it was a good one

[00:00:34] So she chased after her dream

[00:00:36] With much desire

[00:00:41] But when she get too close

[00:00:43] To her expectations

[00:00:47] Well the dream burned up

[00:00:50] Like paper in fire

[00:00:54] Paper in fire

[00:00:55] Stinkin up the ashtrays

[00:00:57] Paper in fire

[00:00:59] Smokin up the alleyways

[00:01:00] Whos to say the way

[00:01:02] A man should spend his days

[00:01:04] Do you let them smolder

[00:01:07] Like paper in fire

[00:01:12] He wanted love

[00:01:14] With no involvement

[00:01:19] So he chased the wind

[00:01:20] Thats all his silly life required

[00:01:25] And the days of vanity

[00:01:27] Went on forever

[00:01:31] And he saw his days burn up

[00:01:34] Like paper in fire

[00:01:38] Paper in fire

[00:01:39] Stinkin up the ashtrays

[00:01:41] Paper in fire

[00:01:43] Smokin up the alleyways

[00:01:45] Whos to say the way

[00:01:46] A man should spend his days

[00:01:48] Do you let them smolder

[00:01:51] Like paper in fire

[00:02:26] Theres a good life

[00:02:28] Right across the green fields

[00:02:33] And each generation

[00:02:35] Stares at it from afar

[00:02:39] But we keep no check

[00:02:42] On our appetites

[00:02:46] So the green fields turn to brown

[00:02:48] Like paper in fire

[00:02:52] Paper in fire

[00:02:54] Stinkin up the ashtrays

[00:02:55] Paper in fire

[00:02:57] Smokin up the alleyways

[00:02:59] Whos to say the way

[00:03:01] A man should spend his days

[00:03:03] Do you let them smolder

[00:03:05] Like paper in fire

[00:03:09] Paper in fire

[00:03:10] Stinkin up the ashtrays

[00:03:12] Paper in fire

[00:03:14] Smokin up the alleyways

[00:03:16] Whos to say the way

[00:03:17] A man should spend his days

[00:03:19] Do you let them smolder

[00:03:22] Like paper in fire
