Quit my job at the 7-11
3-d vision and a glance of heaven
Picked up my six string began to play
Just one touch and it started to say
All your dreams will come true
Lovely mansion with a pool so blue
A red ferrari and a model for a wife
Oh yes it looks I was born for the good life
* running up the highway looking for something
Looking for something I can't see
Running up the highway looking for something
Looking for something I can't see
A thousand motels waiting to trash
Tv dinners, well I love that bash
And if you eddie, just say hi
This party's open so drop on by
All your dreams will come true
A sunny haven from the inland revenue
Hot nights in paris a chance to dance
Since I signed up I've been living in a trance
* repeat
I'm feeling sick like dawn of the dead
I've got marines marching through my head
John-boy walton, he's so nice
So come in this must be paradise
All your dreams will come true
That lovely mansion with it's pool so blue
A red ferrari and a model for a wife
Oh yes it looks I was born for the good life
* repeat

Daylight's rising across the plains
This rig is streaking like a hellbound train
I smuggle whiskey, I smuggle gin
Where there's a need well I just truck on in
I'm a gambling man, son of a gun
I'll take the risks now baby I'll make the run
Wanna get home now, back in the saddle
Ain't gonna drive this kinda grade a cattle
Daylight's rising across the plains
This rig is streaking like a hellbound train
Albuquerque now, new mexico
This rig is class, it ain't a one night show, yeah
* (and I'm) one step closer to the devil
One step further from the law
Lord I guess I'm just on borrowed time
But I'm one step closer to the
One step closer to the borderline
18 hours on this one long shift
Wanna hear the sweet sound of my tailgate lift
Lord I'm dying out on this road
Wanna see my baby, help me unload
* repeat
Rolling stock now, shifting steel
Got a woman with a touch to heal
Diesel, dust and my wheels are humming
So close to home, can you feel me coming
* repeat
To the borderline...
To the borderline
(instrumental)
* repeat
To the borderline...
To the borderline...
Wheels are rollin' down on home

Caught in the crossfire, warnin' fight
Legends make or break game
Swept up by the rolling waves of the night
The paper chase for fame
I was too, too hot, baby
Too hot to handle
Yeah, I was too, too hot
Too hot to handle
Wink of an eye, the feelings ran high
A real rock and roll molest
But I ain't no romance
And I ain't no slow chance
Won't get no quick change
And I'm too, too hot, baby
Too hot to handle
Yeah, I'm too, too hot, baby
Too hot to handle
Sha la la la, roll you over
Turn you around and do it again
Sha la la la , keep on coming
Do it once but never the same
Sha la la la, roll you over
Turn you around and do it again
Sha la la la , keep on coming
Do it once but never the same
Sha la la la, roll you over
Turn you around and do it again
Sha la la la , keep on coming
Do it once but never the same
I'm in your town, won't fool around
I'll make some action stick
Just like the story says, these boys are bad
So keep out of shootin' range
And I'm too, too hot, baby
Too hot to handle
Yeah, I'm too, too hot, baby
And I'm too, too hot, baby
Too hot to handle
Yeah, I'm too, too hot, baby

No use in pretending, it's not been and gone
There's no defending, this feeling's all too strong
Every time and every place, I see magic in your eyes
I wanna see you feel you hold you tight
Till hell ices over I'll be waiting tonight
Oh, she's the one
I was stripped right down now yeah
She had me reeling
Oh baby, she's the one
And nothing feels better
And I know now she's the only one
Dealing with emotions we can uncreate
Being held under, oh how you infatuate
Every step and every move I see it in your eyes
I wanna see you feel you hold you tight
Till hell ices over I'll be waiting tonight
Oh, baby, she's the one
I was cut right down now
Oh, she left me reeling
Oh baby, she's the one
Nothing felt better
And I can't forget her she's the only one
Only one
* oh, she's the one
I was stripped right down now yeah
She left me reeling
Oh baby, she's the one
And nothing felt better
And I can't forget her she's the only one
Only one
* repeat
Only one....she's the one...

Gotta give you love oh cherry
Dance for me there's only you
Play the barrooms just for pennies
Wish I wasn't just passing through
Tell me your secrets, tell me no one way lyin' now
We are golden , we are golden
And I'm out here on the road, I feel just like a rolling stone
Into the highways of thei night I roll alone
On the tabletops she's dancing, sit and smile into your beer
Turn around no cherry for me, let me know you know I'm here
We are golden, we are golden
And I'm out here on the road, I feel just like a rolling stone
Into the highways of the night, making it feel all right
Come on cherry let's make it together
Out of the neon and into my life
We can't play this game forever, now.....
Gotta give my love oh cherry, dance for me there' s only you
Play the barrooms just for pennies, wish I wasn't just passing through
Tell me your secrets, tell me no one way lyin' now
We are golden, we are golden
And I'm out here on the road, I feel just like a rolling stone
Into the highways of the night I roll alone

I'm every man here in disguise
Lie cheat and give you a spoonful of lies
I'm a high toned mother with an axe to grind
Come a little closer honey, see what you find
Your worst nightmares all rolled in one
I'll find you sure as the rising sun
Don't make a noise it's understood
'cos this ain't no story like red riding hood
I'm your back door man, I'm your back door man oh yeah
I'm your back door man, come on babe, and I'll take you where I can
Systematically I choose at will
But with you there's an obscene thrill
It's funny now how you can't say no
It's the smell of fear that you love so
I'm your back door man, I'm your back door man, oh yeah,
I'm your back door man baby, just take it where you can
This first kiss has a touch of ice
Now how's that feel, it ain't so nice
Blackhearted mamma I've something new
Oh lord look what I've turned into
I'm your back door man, I'm your back door man
I'm your back door man, I'm your back door man

Guess it's just the same old story
Fool I didn't have a chance
She took me like a house that's burning
Never gave a second glance
Eat 'em up let 'em go and you never
Let your feelings show
She ain't here and you're asking why
Life's a bitch and then you die
Come on lover just let go
Is there something I should know
Was it just one of those nights
Something you don't remember, yeah
Just one of those crazy nights
Something I don't remember
Sitting at the bar drinking beer
Happy hour's over and love's cost me dear
The piano player sits at his stool
He's playing "feelings" ain't' life cruel
Uptown downtown life's a river
And I wish I could drown
I could still hear those loving sighs
A lesson learnt love's just a lie
I know I made a big mistake
With love there's no even break
There's a price you have to pay
I got the bill when I heard you say
* (was it) just one of those nights (baby)
Something I don't remember
Just one of those crazy nights
Something you don't remember
Was it just one of those nights, baby
Something I don't remember
Just one of those crazy nights
Something I don't remember
* repeat

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

Who's taking time out, we'll take a shine out
We're the boys we got nothing to lose
I've had enough now of school and stuff now
If you ain't with us then it's just bad news
Only you can rock me rock me
Come on back now d o it again
Only you can rock me, rock me
Kicking out just like a hurrican3
We can't wait from day to day
'cause we've got something to say
We can't wait from day to day
'cause we've got something to say
Come on the street now on every corner
Breaking out and we're doing what we want to
Just like a jewel shines in the night
She burns so hot out under the street light
Chorus
We are here and there's no end
We keep on coming again
We are here and there's no end
We just keep coming again
Who's taking time out, we take a shine out
We're the boys we got nothing to lose
I've had enough now of school
And stuff now
If you ain't with us then it's just bad news
Only you can rock me, rock me
Come on back now, do it again
Only you can rock me, rock me
Kickin' out just like a hurricane
We can't wait from day to day
'cause we've got something to say
We are here and there's no end
We'll keep on coming again
We can't wait from day to day
'cause we've got something to say
We are here and there's no end
We'll keep on coming again

Wind blows back and the batons charging
It winds all the way
Right to the butt of my gun
Maybe now your time has come
From the back streets there's a rumbling
Smell of anarchy
No more nice time, black boy shoe shines
Pie in the sky dreams
Lights out, lights out in London, hold on tight till the end
Better now you know we'll never wait till tomorrow
Lights out, lights out in London, hold on tight till the end
God knows when I'm coming on (my) run
Heaven help those who help themselves
That's the way it goes
The frightening thoughts of what's been taught
And now it shows
Lights out, lights out in London, hold on tight till the end
Better now you know we'll never wait till tomorrow
Lights out, lights out in London, hold on tight till the end
God knows when I'm coming on (my) run
Lights out, lights out in London, hold on tight till the end
Better now you know we'll never wait till tomorrow
Lights out, lights out in London, hold on tight till the end
God knows when I'm coming on (my) run
You keep coming, there's no running
Tried a thousand times
Under your feet grass is growing
Time we said goodbye
Lights out, lights out in London, hold on tight till the end
Better now you know we'll never wait till tomorrow
Lights out, lights out in London, hold on tight till the end
God knows when I'm coming on (my) run
Lights out, lights out in London
Lights out, lights out in London

Doctor, doctor, please, oh the mess I'm in
Doctor, doctor, please, oh the mess I'm in
She walked up to me and really stole my heart
And then she started to take my body apart
Living, loving, I'm on the run, far away from you
Living, loving, I'm on the run, so far away from you
Doctor, doctor, please, oh I'm going fast
Doctor, doctor, please, oh I'm going fast
It's only just a moment, she's turning paranoid
That's not a situation for a nervous boy
Doctor, doctor, please, oh the mess I'm in
Doctor, doctor, please, oh the mess I'm in
But you look so angry as I crawled across your floor
She's got the strain and I can't take any more
Living, loving, I'm on the run, so far away from you
Living, loving, I'm on the run, so far away from you
Doctor, doctor, please, oh the mess I'm in
Doctor, doctor, please, oh I'm going fast
Doctor, doctor, please, oh the mess I'm in
Doctor, doctor

Seventeen, a Natchez queen
Oh you know what I mean
Twenty one, I hnow that 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
Heaven's don't just open
When you can knock
Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom
Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom
Wall of darkness closin' in
Will the light reveal your soul
Just one sweet kiss
On your clay cold lips
Long, long sleep you'll never know
Where do we go, where do we go
Where do we go from here
[Solo]
Seventeen, a Natchez queen
Oh you know what I mean
Twenty one, I hnow that 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

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

C'mon everybody and lets get together tonight
Got some money in my jeans and I m really gone spend it right
No more movies for a week or to no more running round with the usual crew
Ah who cares? c'mon everybody
Well my baby's #1 but I gotta dance with 3 or 4
The place is really shaking form the bare feet slapping on the floor
When you hear the music you can't sit still
Your brother won't rock but your sister will
Whoo! c'mon everybody
My place is really rocking so we gotta put a guard outside
If my folks come home I'm afraid they're gonna have my hide
No more movies for a week or two, no more running round with the usual crew
Who cares? c'mon everybody
C'mon everybody and let's get together tonight
(got) some money in my jeans and I'm rally gone spend it right
No more movies for a week or two, no more running rotund with us crew
Ah who cares? c'mon everybody
. . .
