One Way Street Lyrics - Tim O'brien

You're leadin' me down a one way, a one way 

You're leadin' me down a one way street 

Is it a game that you play, that you play 

Here I've been thinkin' that you're so sweet 

I do the givin' and you take 

All of my lovin' and you make 

Promises that you don't keep 

Baby the price is too steep 

You're leadin' me down a one way, a one way 

You're leadin' me down a one way street 

You've been paintin' a picture, it's a picture 

Maybe it's pretty but it's not real 

You better start lookin' elsewhere, lookin' elsewhere 

Go find another heart you can steal 

You got my wheels a turnin', setting my heart to burnin' 

You never wanted a steady, you just wanted one that was ready 

For you to lead down a one way, a one way 

You're leadin' me down a one way street 

(Repeat first four lines) 

Maybe it won't be too long, you'll be singing the same song 

You'll be poundin' the pavement, wonderin' which way that I went 

You're leadin' me down a one way, a one way 

You're leadin' me down a one way street
