[G] [F#]
[G] [Gm] [C#]
[Gm] [G] [D]
[G] [A] [Gm]
She was the parson's daughter with red and [D#] rosy [Gm] cheeks
[D] [G]
She went to church on Sunday and sang the [C#] anthem [G] sweet
[Gm]
The parson was [C#] a misery so [G] [F#] scraggy and so [G] thin
Hey, hey, beehive, oh
Look here you [Gm] motherfuckers if you lead a life of sin
[G] Then there's fire down below
He took his text from Maliki and pulled a weary face
Hey, hey, beehive, oh
Well I fucked up for Africa and there I fell [E] from grace
Cause [G] there's fire down below
The parson's little daughter was as sweet as sugar [A] candy
[G] Hey, hey, beehive, oh
I said to her a sailor's would make a lover's neat and handy
Cause there's fire down below
[C#] She [G] says to me you sailors are a bunch of fucking liars
Hey, hey, beehive, oh
[Dm]
[G] And all of you are bound to hell to feed the [D] fucking [E] fires
[G] Cause there's fire down below
Well there's fire down below my lad so we must do what we ought to
Hey, hey, beehive, [Gm] oh
[G] Cause the fire there's not half as hot as the parson's little daughter
Cause there's fire down below
It says fire [Gm] [G] down below
It says fire down below
Yes there's fire down below
as the fire down belongs.
[N]
