Ring Of Fire Lyrics

Thunder, you're tempting me
A feast of spice in the night is what I need
Ooh I'm a-ready to roar
And I'm a-ready for more
Well I'm a-ready to burn like the light into the dawn

Oh I gotta see the fire in me turning into ecstasy
So stick around and settle down, enjoy the mystery
A voice in the wilderness, there's somethin' in the air
A hidden love, forbidden pleasure, suffer secret pain

Thunder
Are you ready, ready for burnin'
Feels like fire
Are you ready, ready for burnin'
Ring of fire

Heartless, so indiscreet
You're stealing up from behind, a raging heat
I'm staring into the sun
I'm staring into a gun
I'm stirring up a storm
Turn it on and let it burn

Oh I gotta see the fire in me
Turning into ecstasy
So stick around and settle down
Enjoy the mystery
A voice in the wilderness
There's somethin' in the air
A hidden love, forbidden pleasure, suffer secret pain

Thunder
Are you ready, ready for burnin'
Feels like fire
Are you ready, ready for burnin'
Ring of fire
Are you ready, ready for burnin'
Oh, feels like fire
Are you ready, ready for burnin'
Ring of fire

Thunder, you tempted me
Ya cut me up, like a knife so tenderly

Oh I gotta see the fire in me
Burning up my ecstasy
A hidden love, forbidden pleasure, suffer secretly

Oh no
Are you ready, ready for burnin'
Feels like fire
Are you ready, ready for burnin'
Ring of fire
Are you ready, ready for burnin'
Feels like fire
Are you ready, ready for burnin'
Ring of fire

yeah, these lyrics are wrong. i looked up the lyrics on def leppard's official website. so here they are, corrected.

"Thunder, you're tempting me A feast of spice in the night is what I need Ooh I'm a-ready to roar And I'm a-ready for more Well I'm a-ready to burn like the light into the dawn

Oh I gotta see the fire in me turning into ecstasy So stick around and settle down, enjoy the mystery A voice in the wilderness, there's somethin' in the air A hidden love, forbidden pleasure, suffer secret pain

Thunder Are you ready, ready for burnin' Feels like fire Are you ready, ready for burnin' Ring of fire

Heartless, so indiscreet You're stealing up from behind, a raging heat I'm staring into the sun I'm staring into a gun I'm stirring up a storm Turn it on and let it burn

Oh I gotta see the fire in me Turning into ecstasy So stick around and settle down Enjoy the mystery A voice in the wilderness There's somethin' in the air A hidden love, forbidden pleasure, suffer secret pain

Thunder Are you ready, ready for burnin' Feels like fire Are you ready, ready for burnin' Ring of fire Are you ready, ready for burnin' Oh, feels like fire Are you ready, ready for burnin' Ring of fire

Thunder, you tempted me Ya cut me up, like a knife so tenderly

Oh I gotta see the fire in me Burning up my ecstasy A hidden love, forbidden pleasure, suffer secretly

Oh no Are you ready, ready for burnin' Feels like fire Are you ready, ready for burnin' Ring of fire Are you ready, ready for burnin' Feels like fire Are you ready, ready for burnin' Ring of fire"

i also noticed that the opening guitar riff of this song is almost straight off of ozzy osbourne's "crazy train". great song, though.

i highly doubt that it's about eating mexican (or indian) food and having bad gas, as the lyrics as a whole don't seem to support it. it seems to be about, as letmein says, a girl who just wants to have fun, but the singer wants something deeper.

well, there's my two cents. enjoy

Depends on which lyrics you want to sing this song is one of those songs that have two set of lyrics in one song depending on how you listen to it. The "Are you ready, ready for fun girl", can be heard as "Are you ready, ready for burning. The "burning" part of this song was written about how they were eating mexican food and had bad gas.

Wasn't it Indian food?

The "fun girl" is avoiding anything deeper and the singer would like to have her actually fall in love with him.
