Unforgettable Fire

Two poor country boys in their 'tweens
Going to the circus was a dream
Wild animals; all kinds of shows
Into the huge tent they would go

Going to the circus was a dream
Who could have possibly forseen
Into the hugh tent they would go
Just seated someone screamed," Fire"

Who could have possibly forseen
Wild animals; all kinds of shows
Just seated someone screamed,"Fire"
Two poor country boys in their 'tweens
