I know truly, girls are so unruly
They take you for the things they can
I know better, when i wanna get her
I treat her like i treat a man

When i know her well, and she tries to tell me
That she thinks she's gonna fall in love
I tell her not today, baby i can't stay
Whoa no, let go

It ain't the smoke that burns ya
It ain't the smoke that burns ya
It ain't the smoke that burns ya
It's the fire
It's the fire

In the city, girls are lookin' pretty
All walking down 5th avenue
They look dandy, things got kinda randy
I tell her pleasures overdue

When i know her well, and she tries to tell me
That she thinks she's gonna fall in love
I tell her not today, baby i can't stay
Whoa no, let go

It ain't the smoke that burns ya
It ain't the smoke that burns ya
It ain't the smoke that burns ya
It's the fire
It's the fire

When i know her well, and she tries to tell me
That she thinks she's gonna fall in love
I tell her not today, baby i can't stay
Whoa no, let go

It ain't the smoke that burns ya
It ain't the smoke that burns ya
It ain't the smoke that burns ya
It's the fire
It's the fire

It ain't the smoke that burns ya [x7]
