So now it's getting late, for those who hesitate, got no one But they don't understand and no one hears the sound, it's like a waterfall, it's an illusion
CHORUS Love is all, waterfall, love is what you are Pulls you in, takes you down, it's a sad affair But you know as you hold back th power the power there Without the friends and lovers you could never go on living
Across the waterfall that's falling evermore down on you Cascading through the days and flowing on its way That's how it has to be, just an illusion
You made a fool of me But them broken dreams have got to end Hey woman you got the blues Cause you ain't got no one else to use There's an open road that leads no where So just make some miles between here and there There's a hole in my head where the rain comes in You took my body and played to win Ha, ha woman, it's a crying shame But you ain't got nobody else to blame
Evil woman, evil woman Evil woman, evil woman
Rolled in from another town Hit some gold, too hot to settle down But a fool and his money soon go separate ways And you found a fool lyin' in a daze Ha ha woman What you gonna do You destroyed all the virtues that the Lord gave you It's so good that you're feelin' pain But you better get your face board the very next train (repeat chorus)
Evil woman how you done me wrong But now you're to wail a different song Ha, ha funny how you broke me up ]You made the wine now you drink a cup I come runnin' every time you cried I thoughjt I saw love smilin' in your eyes Ha, ha very nice to know That you ain't got no place left to go (repeat chorus)
I remember somewhere in the rain, the faces of the passers-by, staring faces, broken blinds I recall the situation clearly, standing in a crowded car, I can feel the need in me
CHORUS Hold on, nightrider baby, hold on, you're a nightrider Riding the night, searching for what is gone Never reaching the end, so you must travel on
I still see that vision of delight, while cruising on the black of night, but she keeps a step ahead Looking out the corner of her world, nobody ever knows a girl who once lived along this way
CHORUS
Desolation, degradation row, go on, don't let the feeling show, she's a ten, a penny dream Faces with no name and no address keep staring in on my distress, but she kills me with her smile
Away, the joker's closing in, reform and they will win, the light is fading fast I know, you know, they know, we all know, everybody's gonna burn down
The girls come crawling on all fours, banging on locked doors, high cards all the time I know, you know, they know, we all know Everybody's gonna burn down
Play me another hand, lose everything I am, until we meet again
The ace that's hiding up your sleeve will cause the world to grieve, the love you had is gone I know, you know, they know, we all know The dream in every player's heart, to win it all, not part, they lie awake at night I know, you know, they know, we all know
The game where the gamblers rule the night And get your blood they might, the joker's closin' in I know, you know, they know, we all know
The world outside don't like us much 'Cause they ain't got our classy touch But they ain't good enough to breathe This town's good air, we make 'em leave
CHORUS But it's no, no, no, you really can't do that No, no, no, down home town
No monkey business in this town Well, who do you think you're pushing 'round This town's respectable and clean Just look around, you'll see what I mean
CHORUS
Down home town, down home town
CHORUS
We got the best town band around, just listen to their crazy sound When they get hot they gonna blow ucedemwinnin every show Down home town, down home town
