*Cold wide sweet highway the place where we'd all go
Went out like a razor sharp and we'd all let it roll Let it roll Let it roll, let it go Let it roll **She'd skid up, and we really let it down Laying it out, let it roll When these wheels get rolling, let them roll right over you The time will be sound and I'll always put it through Let it roll, let it roll Let it roll **Repeat *Repeat **Repeat |

Was a fast tough woman
Loved to play the clown You won't do nothing about it Break a good boy's resistance down *Know she's got a pistol Laid it down on me She said shoot, shoot, shoot it boy You gotta shoot it for me Convinced me that she was worth it Never knew I was her kill And two 45's would do the trick And pay the bills *Repeat **I've really got to get a fast ride out of here Got to get a fast ride out of here Got to get a fast ride out of here Got to get a fast ride out of here now Holding out in my hotel room Police they finally come Had her as the prosecution And my prints upon the gun *Repeat **Repeat |

Two lovers in a desperate game
She holds him close but their love's in vain And the married man that you laid Goes back home to his own charade She puts her faith in every word he said Tender moments in a motel bed When you press the point he says we'll see But then walks to his mystery * so darling you tell me it's a wild world You gotta take a little pain and How long will love last that you can Never, never explain ** do you just Let it rain, let it rain Don't stop those tears falling again just Let it rain, let it rain Now you see that love's just a game In his arms time goes so fast But stolen love will never last You try to keep him though you know it's wrong This kind of love can only last so long * repeat ** repeat * repeat ** repeat & fade |

It's hot up in the west end, there's panic right downtown
As the gangs assemble, coming up from underground Well Jesus I don't know which side I should be on I'm a class contender if anything goes wrong When it's time to rock We're the only ones No one takes this block Cos we're number one We sneaked through the no go, very late last night Out up from the back streets, cruising for a fight Well Jackie's got his six string, he can play behind his back Mickey's out from Bellevue, he's just makin' tracksAs we rocked through the midnight, took 'em all by storm The police boys didn't have a chance, didn't even get warm Oh Daddy, why am I sittin' here, I'm not a member of the bar I'm not the only wild one in a hot wired car |

Seventeen, a nature's queen
You know what I mean Twenty-one, a long one You can see the numbers run Now you look so peaceful Lyin' there asleep With the wings of God above you Before the spirits meet Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom Shadow earth is closin' in Above the lamps in your street Lucifer goes walkin' Down for you to meet Minutes pass so slowly by The hands on your clock Heavens don't just open You can knock Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom With the darkness closin' in Will the light reveal your soul? Just one sweet kiss On your clay cold lips A long sleep you'll never know Where do we go, where do we go? Where do we go from here? Seventeen, a nature's queen You know what I mean Twenty-one, a long one You can see the numbers run Now you look so peaceful Lyin' there asleep With the wings of God above you Before the spirits meet Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom |

Some folk built like this, some folk built like that
But the way I'm built, you shouldn't call me fat Because I'm built for comfort, I ain't built for speed But I got everything all the good girls need I don't have no diamond, and I don't have no gold But I've got a lot of lovin' and I want you to know That I'm built for comfort, I ain't built for speed But I got everything all the good girls need Some folk built like this, some folk built like that But the way I'm built, you shouldn't call me fat Because I'm built for comfort, I ain't built for speed But I got everything all the good girls need Some folk rip and roar, some folk b'lieve in signs But if you want me, you got to take your time Because I'm built for comfort, I ain't built for speed But I got everything all the good girls need But I got everything all the good girls need I ... I love you baby I ... I love you baby But I got everything all of the good girls need And I don't got no diamonds, don't have no gold Got a lot of lovin' to satisfy your soul I'm built for comfort, I ain't built for speed But I got everything all the good girls need |

Oh it's been too many times and I can't go back
Night bars, guitars, rundown motels like shacks What it mounts up to I don't want it at all Lost you and I want you today * misty green and blue Love to love to love you Misty green and blue Love to love to love you To be something, to be with you Don't say that you'll never know Love to love to love you Half the time it could seem funny The other half is just too sad This west bound moon's they rise and fall Lost you and I want you today * repeat To be something, to be near you I don't know where I'm goin' to I've tried and I need you to stay |

High flyers, wailing birds
I'm so far out to sea Ships are passing every night Oh, all my boyish dreams * and your every melody With the sea tides tossin' free Never, never holdin' back Rock and rollers drift by Turn to summer, goes so fast Seems I'll never see you One weekend and a photograph Oh, all my boyish dreams * repeat |

* Fast as light our jets were burnin'
On the road a distant siren song Hands upon my engines growin' Vincent's deep throat breathin' out so strong I can hold her, can you roll her Ride her like there's no tomorrow Siren's song sure is growin' stronger Shadow reached a high note And in the distance (electric lights) no longer I can hold her, can you roll her I can hold her, can you roll her I can hold her, can you roll her * repeat * repeat I can hold her, can you roll her I can hold her, can you roll her I can hold her, can you roll her I can hold her, can you roll her |

Maybe tomorrow
Maybe next week Oh baby the future looks bleak I can't believe what's been goin' on You're never there You're always gone A little faith goin' a long way Always thought that you would stay (???) Diggin' for gold Movin' on, I'm out in the cold * no no baby, I believed in you No no baby, it's not true No no baby, I believed in you Don't put my heart on the line ** this time, let it be me I'll be the one that you can see This time I'll be your man I'm right here baby, here in your hand Situation is the classic kind Caught in this trap, oh love is blind Friends keep saying that you're bad news I keep saying how could you choose (???) one more time Just to believe you are mine At the point of no return A fool in love, when will I learn * repeat ** repeat twice There's no sign that this love of ours Will go on and on I took a long look at love From the point of view there's an angel above.. ** repeat There's no sign that this love of ours will go on and on ** repeat and fade |

Skulking in the mean streets whispering in the halls
Redlight bandits on the corner give no quarter calls Infectious garbage fills the streets and in their eyes you know A thin blue line bends and breaks stop the overflow Fan the flames of the city's heat In dark corners that you never seen Desperation when the trouble flares Alarm guns ring, running scared And you're long gone, down in this hell Long gone down in this hell So baby won't you hold me tight Let your softness fill my night We've got a dream don't let it slip away In your eyes I can see the fear This town never sheds a tear We're gonna be out someday People looking for a holy one Some kind of hero or a prophet to come Visionaries dance the night away There's no tomorrow living for today But you're long gone down, in this hell Long gone down in this hell I saw the stars come out tonight so lonely and immune Summer rain kissed the streets that bleed like open wounds Patrol cars sweep the avenues down on forty eighth While faces in dark doorways wait to arouse the hate Fan the flames of the city's heat In dark corners that you never seen Desperation when the trouble flares Well I'm gonna scream, running scared And you're long gone, down in this hell Long gone down in this hell So baby won't you hold me tight Let your softness fill my night We've got a dream don't let it slip away In your eyes I can see the fear This town never sheds a tear We're gonna be walking away Baby better walk away Baby better walk away We'll be busting out someday |

Hey babe what we gonna do
No look behind me glances Straight time this time We'll take our chances Darling it's been so long Every lonely hour Laud the sinner pulls the trigger And the world turns sour Whisper on the wind Locked in silence Profession of violence Whisper on the wind Locked in silence Profession of violence Try to pick up the pieces Maybe move away But the lifer Was only yesterday Down the halls of justice The echoes never fade Notches on my gun Another debt is paid Whisper on the wind Locked in silence Profession of violence Whisper on the wind Locked in silence Profession of violence |

I got the information from a friend last night
And it looks so very different in black and white I was "part of the second party", that was me Signed away my life, really couldn't see * Blinded by, blinded by a lie Blinded by, blinded by a lie I know it's just the price you pay I know you're nothing * Repeat Now you listen closely, don't you go away There's a cut of something, in what I have to say You keep the full deck from me, "Mr. Percent" Through the legal jungle, who's the one that's bent? * Repeat I know it's just the price you pay I know you've nothin' to say And oh boy every dog has it's day I know you'll be the one to pay And now I see that I was * Repeat and fade |
