With their long soft hair falling 
Am 
Flying as they run 
        C                     Cmaj7 
Oh they smile so shy and they flirt so well 
          G 
And they lay you down so fast 
          D 
Till you look straight up and say 
Oh lord, am I really here at last 
 
 
Who wants to play those eights and aces 
Who wants a raise 
Who needs a stake 
Who wants to take that long shot gamble 
And head out to fire lake, and head out 
Who wants to go to fire lake, and head out 
Who wants to go to fire lake, and head out 
Out to fire lake 
Who?s gonna do it 
 
Outro: - End on G
