Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, yeah, yeah, ah. Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey. . You're playin' with my thunder. Heavens knows I sometimes wonder who you are.
The street light crawls into a bare bulb hotel. Where dead eyes shine there's a story to tell. It's a life of crime on a bed of stone. When the devil calls you're better off alone, ah.
This is the place where nobody comes from. Perfect strangers in this desert town. Just out of flame, looking for favors. Hungry players when the deals go down.
Nothin' in your pocket. Something up your sleeve. Look right at my alley. Coming down my street. . Gun goes off at midnight. Whistle blows at dawn. Give me half the morning.
He was Johnny on the spot he was red hot. Walked slow and smoked a lot. She was a jukebox junkie, hand on one hip. Great big eyes and bright red lips.
I wonder what would happen if I fell. Would you pick me up and be my wishing well?. If I shared my secrets, would you promise not to tell?. I wonder what would happen if I fell.
The last time I saw William, he was as good as gone. He'd packed up all his poetry and his hurtin' songs. Well, they say that he died but the papers lied.
Just a stray little Gypsy boy,. Trying on the highway for size. A cowboy kid cracking 105. Crossing the New Mexico line. . I believe we got a live one here.
I send a message to you. I close my eyes and hope it gets through. It's in the language of love. It's in your touch, there in your mouth. . I wonder if you hear me tonight.
Anywhere but home. Thats where youre going. It sucks to be alone. Its safer not knowing. When everything feels wrong. You dont know your left from right.
You think you know all about me. 'Cause you spent the night, ha, yeah right, not quite. You think you're the one to tame me. I'm your mothers worse nightmare.
Mississippi in the middle of a dry spell. Jimmy Rogers on the Victrola up high. Mama's dancin' with baby on her shoulder. The sun is settin' like molasses in the sky.
Blow wind blow all my worries. Away from me. Blow wind blow a little heaven my way. Blow wind blow a little heaven my way. . Day goes down. Upon this dirty little town.
Watch out for rescue. I should have known. When I was in danger. At least I was on my own. . Watch out for rescue. Don't wanna be saved. Won't be your mama.
When in Rome do as the French do in Spain. Lemme, fall down in German, get me back up again. Fly me hell bent for leather, up to the moon. You better, wipe that indecision off your face.
There's a place on Starowka. Lots of people live there. Not supposed to, government says no. But they don't care. . The sirens blare, apocalypse. Musicians still play on.
I catch a chill when I look into your eyes. Something too familiar, I seem to recognize. Like lookin' in the mirror, baby and I'm scared of what I see.
Do you really wanna know me?. Do you care what's inside?. Can you ever really show me?. There's no secrets I must hide. . If I bare my soul, can you accept it all?.
It seems we're headed for a total breakdown. It keeps on getting harder to connect. If this is not a war between the sexes. Well then some kind of hex is in effect.
Two lips pout. Too cold for kissing. Smoke pouring out. Fireplace is hissing. The perfect night. The ideal bride. Everything tried. Everything missing.
