Once it started

the frail and fainthearted

just withered to the floor

Oh so sadly

we examined hands burned badly

by that which no man fears more



#1 the terrible flames of all that remains

of my little shirtwaiste fire



My best friend was alone in the alcove

does anyone see her there?

such a sweet face trapped in a staircase

by the smell of her own burning hair



Repeat #1



#2 glow baby glow as the embers have died there

nobody knows what we saw inside there

twisting and burning the girls fine young bodies

yes we're burning can you help us please

yes we're begging we're on bended knees

oh my little shirtwaiste fire



Girls work hard for small rewards

or invitations to dine

or one kind word from one who loves them

but what i have earned is mine



Repeat #1



Repeat #2
