Out on the edge of an empty highway. Howling at the blood on the moon. Big diesel Mack truck rolling down my way. I can't hit that border too soon. . Running hard out of Muskrat Flats.
I left my home in Norfolk Virginia, California on my mind.. Straddled that Greyhound, it rode me past Raleigh, and on across Caroline.. . Stopped in Charlotte and bypassed Rock Hill, and we never was a minute late..
As we rode out to Fennario, as we rode on to Fennario. Our captain fell in love with a lady like a dove. And called her by a name, pretty Peggy-O.. Will you marry me pretty Peggy-O, will you marry me pretty Peggy-O.
Some folks trust to reason. Others trust to might. I don't trust to nothing. But I know it come out right. . Say it once again now. Oh, I hope you understand.
South of Market in the land of ruin. You get all manner of action. Tinsel tigers in The Metal Room. Stalking satisfaction.. They got 'em packaged up for love and money.
Some folks trust to reason. Others trust to might. I don't trust to nothing. But I know it come out right. . Say it once again now. Oh, I hope you understand.
Firefly, can you see me?. Shine on, glowing, brief and brightly. Could you imagine? one summer day,. That same night be on your way. . Do you remember? Hearts were too cold.
As we rode out to Fennario, as we rode on to Fennario. Our captain fell in love with a lady like a dove. And called her by a name, pretty Peggy-O.. Will you marry me pretty Peggy-O, will you marry me pretty Peggy-O.

Behind the curtains. I hide from the eyes of the world. And I know for the certain. That this storm is lurking around. And as much as I try to. I never can fight it away.
(Speak). You know you. You make me feel,. So good inside.. I will want a girl cause,. Like you.. P.Y.T (Pretty Young Thing). Ooooouh. . Where Did You Come From bady.
I passed on the painted veil. Somerset, some other time and love. Weighed without intention. And that caught her eye. . She knew what I was thinking of.
Coming back around. Baby, just when I need it. Stuck inside my head. You're a groove to my needle. . Got nowhere to go. 'Cause you know I don't want to.
[Produced by Mash Beatz]. . [Verse 1: Syfa]. . Remember days when all I wanted from ma' rap was havin' groupies. Hood rats tryna see what's cookin', Ratatouille.
Look at this photograph. Every time I do it makes me laugh. How did our eyes get so red?. And what the hell is on Joey's head?. . This is where I grew up.
And some say. Why you follow something so long. So I asked him. And he convinced me before long. Now its over. And I've seen him, don't come back anymore.
I'm for the low man on the totem pole. And I'm for the underdog god bless his soul. And I'm for the guys still pulling third shift. And the single mom raising her kids.
