I searched all over the web but I can't find it!
All I could do was listen to the music and try to understand on my own, but my result was quite incomplete, so could you help me?
If someone would like to understand the words listening the song, because believe there's no trace of them written, this is a youtube link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-4p2PGEalwM
it's really a beatiful song, so listen anyway even if you don't mean to help me with the lyrics ;D
thanks in advance

ritchie kotzen - burn it down
-
For starters I paste here the "backbone", as I found some tries to improve lyrics at this website: http://www.requestlyrics.com/read.php?1,862320,862320
i drove a brand new car
coloured black and red
and a big old house
WITH A KING SIZED BED
all money could buy
was a bed i had
to one day i'll LAUGH
and my woman SAID
you know you're playing with fire
you burn it down to the ground
down down down to the ground
i travelLED in first class
and the time i CHOSE
playing on the road
town to town show to show
and one day in FALL
CAME TWO AHEAD
and she found her sisters sleeping in my bed
SHE SAID YOUR playing with fire
you burn it down to the ground
down down down
i went from black to red
all my money spent
??
to living in a NEW room
don't you think CHAMPAGNE? on ice
to (?)
i've lost everything i knew
JUST BY crossing YOU
you've sent to playing with fire
burn it down to the ground
down down down to the ground
--------------------------------------------
Now it is maybe easier to start from this lyrics?
So, if anyone got improving to do, come here and make your suggestions -
and one day in FALL
CAME TWO AHEAD
and she found her sisters sleeping in my bed
I suggest the following:
and one day it all
came to her head
when she found her sister sleeping in my bed
meaning that she recognized what was happening..
don't you think CHAMPAGNE? on ice
-> Drank Champagne on ice
?? (From 5th Avenue down)
to living in a NEW room
This part wants to show the change he has undergone the first line is something about luxury then.. I would leave out the "NEW" as he's not living in a new room but a SINGLE room (the difference between his old status and the new one with no money left) so "a" is fine here I think
I agree with the reststill trying to find out the unclear line.. something with avenue maybe? Ah I hear it.. "from 5th avenue down"
होता है जो होना है ... वक़्त ही शायद खुदा है ...

someone answered on azlyrics with a perfect version, I report it here too so maybe it could be useful in future:
----
i drove a brand new car
colored black and red
and a big old house
with a king-sized bed
all money could buy
was all that i had
till one day i laughed
and my woman said
you know you're playing with fire
you burned it down to the ground
down down down to the ground
i traveled in first class
anytime i chose
playing on the road
town to town show to show
and one day it all
came to a head
when she found her sister sleeping in my bed
she said you're playing with fire
you burn me down to the ground
down down to the ground
i went from black to red
all my money spent
from 5th Avenue down
to living in a room
from champagne on ice
to canned beans and rice
i lost everything i knew
just by crossing you
you said you're playing with fire
i burn it down to the ground
down down down to the ground
----
thanks again for the help -
good, that beans line really makes sense
