1
Long time ago in Trinidad
2
Happen such a thing to make you sad
3
Had a big fire where they make the rum
4
For miles around all the people come
5
And they shouting
6
Out the fire down there
7
Out the fire down there
8
Out the fire down there
9
Out the fire down there
10
A little old woman past eighty eight
11
Running in the fire thru the burning gate
12
Before you could beat on a funeral drum
13
She was rollin' out a peck o' rum
14
And she singing
15
Out the fire down there
16
Out the fire down there
17
Out the fire down there
18
Out the fire down there
19
The way de woman runnin' into the flame
20
Man you would think was a Carnival game
21
I Tell you friends it was a sight to see
22
I never had known such bravery
23
And she screaming
24
Out the fire down there
25
Out the fire down there
26
Out the fire down there
27
Out the fire down there
28
The way de woman runnin' with a bucket and line
29
Man she was working overtime
30
She work up her sweat and never complain
31
She was drinking rum and prayin' for rain
32
And she singing
33
Out the fire down there
34
Out the fire down there
35
Out the fire down there
36
Out the fire down there
37
You could see the fire way down the road
38
Everybody waited for the thing to explode
39
The distillery burnt down to the ground
40
Not a single drop of rum could be found
41
And they singing
42
Out the fire down there
43
Out the fire down there
44
Out the fire down there
45
Out the fire down there
46
Although it all happened a long time ago
47
There is one thing that I don't know
48
She was eighty eight there is no doubt
49
How she get all the rum in she mouth
50
And she singing
51
Out the fire down there
52
Out the fire down there
53
Out the fire down there
54
Out the fire down there
