Pouring Petrol on a Burning Man Songtext
von Paul Kelly

I′ve been pumping on the jack
All my lonely days are stacked
Now I'm heading straight for you
I′ve been working on the wire
I've been putting out these fires
Now I'm heading straight for you

Oh my angel
I′m carrying the can
Oh my angel
You′re pouring petrol on a burning man


I've been changing dirty oil
Now my rags are really soiled
And I′m heading straight for you
I've been laying it too thick
I′ve been cleaning up the slick
Now I'm heading straight for you

Oh my angel
I′m carrying the can
Oh my angel
You're pouring petrol on a burning man

Ev-ery night above my bed
Ev-ery night inside my head
I'm heading straight for you


Oh my angel
I′m carrying the can
Oh my angel
I′m carrying the can
Oh my angel
You're pouring petrol on a burning man
Burning man
Burning man
Burning man...
