Burnin’ SkyBad Company

The sky is burnin'
I believe my soul's on fire
You are, I'm learnin', the key to my desire

Waiting for the van to arrive
The prisoners were lined up outside
Jumped a wall, hitched a ride, and now I'm here to stay
Love you baby anyway

The sky is burnin'
I believe my soul's on fire
You are, I'm learnin', the key to my desire

Ran across the country fields in all the rain
They had guns and dogs and everything
Swam the river tryin' to lose my trail
But they caught me; under the bridge, whoa yeah!

The sky is burnin'
I believe my soul's on fire
You are, I'm learnin', the key to my desire, oh yeah

Oh, yeah

The sky is burnin'
I believe my soul's on fire
You are, I'm learnin', the key to my desire

The judge said this man's a danger to humanity
We're gonna lock him up and throw away the key
Now baby, your love has sent me to jail
But I'd rather die than see you with another man
Yeah it's burnin', baby
Mmm mmmm

I believe my soul's on fire
I believe my soul's on fire

Working on the railroad every day
But they can't keep me here
And I'm not gonna stay
I got to get outta this place
Out to see you, baby
Yeah it's burnin'
Yeah, burnin'
I believe my soul's on fire
Oh, burnin'
Ah, yeah, ah oh ...

Bad Company

Bad Company was not only formed as a supergroup from members of Free (Paul Rodgers and Simon Kirke), Mott the Hoople (Mick Ralphs), and King Crimson (Boz Burrell), but also was immediately signed as the first act on Led Zeppelin’s new label, Swan Song.

So they had a charmed life, from the start. And they made good on everything it promised. They had so many hits we just don’t wanna type them all in with the fancy markup here, so just check them out for yourself, listed by popularity on this very page. Suffice it to say there are few hard blues-rock bands with more songs that hit the US charts.

Here’s one of them, Bad Company, by Bad Company, off the album Bad
