Keys co-wrote and co-produced the hip hop/R&B ballad with Jeff Bhasker and Salaam Remi. The song’s drum beat is sampled from the 1980 song “The Big Beat” by American rock guitarist Billy Squier, who received a writing credit on “Girl on Fire”.

She’s just a girl and she’s on fire
Hotter than a fantasy, lonely like a highway
She’s living in a world and it’s on fire
Feeling the catastrophe, but she knows she can fly away
Ohhhh oh oh oh oh
She got both feet on the ground
And she’s burning it down
Ohhhh oh oh oh oh
She got her head in the clouds
And she’s not backing down
This girl is on fire…
This girl is on fire…
She’s walking on fire…
This girl is on fire…
Looks like a girl, but she’s a flame
So bright, she can burn your eyes
Better look the other way
You can try but you’ll never forget her name
She’s on top of the world
Hottest of the hottest girls say
Ohhhh oh oh oh
We got our feet on the ground
And we’re burning it down
Ohhhh oh oh oh oh
Got our head in the clouds
And we’re not coming down
This girl is on fire…
This girl is on fire…
She’s walking on fire…
This girl is on fire…
Everybody stares, as she goes by
‘Cause they can see the flame that’s in her eyes
Watch her when she’s lighting up the night
Nobody knows that she’s a lonely girl
And it’s a lonely world
But she gon’ let it burn, baby, burn, baby
This girl is on fire…
This girl is on fire…
She’s walking on fire…
This girl is on fire…
Oh, oh, oh, oh ohhhhh oh oh oh ohhh oh oh oh ohhhh… [4x]
She’s just a girl and she’s on fire
