We all came out to Montreux
On the Lake Geneva shoreline
To make records with a mobile
We didn't have much time
Frank Zappa and the Mothers
Were at the best place around
But some stupid with a flare gun
Burned the place to the ground
Smoke on the water, fire in the sky
They burned down the gambling house
It died with an awful sound
Funky Claude was running in and out
Pulling kids out the ground
When it all was over
We had to find another place
But Swiss time was running out
It seemed that we would lose the race
Smoke on the water, fire in the sky
We ended up at the Grand Hotel
It was empty cold and bare
But with the Rolling truck Stones thing just outside
Making our music there
With a few red lights and a few old beds
We made a place to sweat
No matter what we get out of this
I know we'll never forget
Smoke on the water, fire in the sky

Georgia, Georgia, the whole day through
Just an old sweet song keeps Georgia on my mind, Georgia on my mind
Each day, Georgia my honey, a song of you
Comes as sweet and clear as moonlight through the pines
Other arms reach out to me, other eyes smile tenderly
Still in peaceful dreams I see
The road leads back to you, to you beautiful Georgia
Georgia, no peace I find
Just an old sweet song keeps Georgia on my mind
Georgia, Georgia, no peace I find
Just an old sweet song keeps Georgia on my mind
Georgia on my mind
