Jimi Hendrix

The lyrics "Let me stand next to your fire" came from when Jimi Hendrix was at Noel Redding's mother's house, and Jimi asked Noel's mother if he could "stand next to her fire" to warm up. The family dog was laying by the fire which inspired the line, "Move over Rover, and let Jimi take over."
