Fire Lyrics
[DJ]
"The Jimi Hendrix experience sounding off again now,
With one of Jimi's own called 'Fire'"
You don't care for me
I don't care about that
Gotta new fool
I like it like that
[Chorus]
I have only one burnin' desire
Let me stand next to your fire
Let me stand next to your fire
Let me stand baby
Let me stand next to your fire
Oh, let me stand
Let me stand next to your fire
You got to let me stand
Let me stand next to your fire
Oh shucks
Yeah
You say your mom ain't home, you can't let me in
Well, I had to before I don't need you again
[Chorus]
Ah yeah move over rover
And let Jimi take over
Yeah you know what I'm talking 'bout
That's what I'm talking about
You try to gimmie your money
You better save it babe
Save it for your rainy day
I have only one a burnin' desire
Let me stand next to your fire
Let me stand next to your fire
Yeah let me stand
Let me stand next to your fire
Oh, let me stand
Let me stand next to your fire
You know what I'm talken about

Fire
This lyrical lightening bolt was a breakthrough for Hendrix, who had just started writing songs at the request of his manager Chas Chandler. Writing riffs was easy for him, and it turned out he had a talent for crafting lyrics as well, as he was able to turn a simple line into a fiery tale of lustful passion. (This story is verified in Mat Snow's Mojo story on Hendrix that ran in the October, 2006 issue.)
Hendrix set fire to his guitar once again at the Monterey Pop Festival in 1967. At that show, he didn't do the bit during "Fire," he did it after playing "Wild Thing."
