Annotationen
Die zweite amerikansiche Single der Band. Mit ihr brachen sie in den Mainstream durch.
Der Track hat lange Improvisationsstellen, die wie My Favourite Things von John Coltrane auf dem Vamp (Repetition, Ostinato) von zwei aufeinanderfolgenden Akkorden gespielt auf der Vox Continental besteht. Über dem ostinato/Vamp wird improvisiert. Das hat eine Raga-hafte Qualität.

Lyrics
You know that it would be untrue You know that I would be a liar If I was to say to you Girl, we couldn't get much higher Come on baby, light my fire X2 Try to set the night on fire The time to hesitate is through No time to wallow in the mire Try now we can only lose And our love become a funeral pyre Come on baby, light my fire X2 Try to set the night on fire, yeah The time to hesitate is through No time to wallow in the mire Try now we can only lose And our love become a funeral pyre Come on baby, light my fire X2 Try to set the night on fire, yeah You know that it would be untrue You know that I would be a liar If I was to say to you Girl, we couldn't get much higher Come on baby, light my fire X2 Try to set the night on fire X4
