Girl I know you're out for the money, flesh for gold, diamond and fur

We've seen you workin' on every guy in this town

Tradin' in your voodoo for the bible of who's who



All of your dreams you're searching for gold

I'm not too blind to see your kind



Chorus:

You were baptized by fire, painted by rain

Under the spell, feelin' no shame

Baptized by fire, to you it's a game

You were baptized by fire



From out of the trash, to burn in desire

Still this pourin' rain in your heart

Will keep you spinning in the same direction

Can't you feel it ripping your world apart



All of your dreams, you're searching for gold

I'm not too blind to see your kind



chorus



It's a sign of the times, how people mess with your mind

One day they say they love you, then leave you behind

It ain't you they want, it's you they haunt

And the weaker they make you, the deeper they take you

Down 'til you don't know what you feel, what do you feel

Well I know your game, it's nothin' new, so

You can say goodbye to me, 'cos I have said goodbye to you



Voodoo child, voodoo child, voodoo voodoo voodoo voodoo child



Time to take my freedom, time to take control, b

Baby 'cos I'm on a roll - hit it!



(Solo)



chorus repeats 2x
