[00:05.72] | I'm a high steppin', high bettin' |
[00:09.24] | Love givin', I'm a love gettin' |
[00:11.47] | I'm a stranger, I love stretchin' out my wheels |
[00:17.67] | Overnightin' on the desert strip |
[00:20.05] | Makin' time and losin' grip |
[00:23.03] | Drivin' circles in the canyons of my mind |
[00:28.09] | I'm an outsider lookin' in |
[00:30.83] | I got a perfect square for a circle of friends |
[00:33.48] | It's the four of us against the rest of you |
[00:39.84] | But really I am all alone |
[00:42.41] | I'd sell 'em out to save my own |
[00:45.28] | I told them that but they don't buy the truth |
[00:50.28] | I'm a high steppin', high bettin' |
[00:53.76] | Love givin', I'm a love gettin' |
[00:56.21] | I'm a stranger, I love stretchin' out my wheels |
[01:02.32] | Overnightin' on the desert strip |
[01:04.78] | Makin' time and losin' grip |
[01:07.66] | Drivin' circles in the canyons of my mind |
[01:13.63] | Well it's warfare out there, folks |
[01:16.32] | You're either working for success |
[01:18.54] | Or to be rich or, God help us, famous |
[01:21.65] | Or you're working against the clock just to stay afloat |
[01:25.18] | Got your nose all scraped up from the grindstone |
[01:28.29] | You're digging for diamonds and only finding rhinestones |
[01:32.00] | Meanwhile it's August and the tax man has never heard of summer vacation |
[01:36.57] | You're either working on yourself or you're lookin' after babies |
[01:39.84] | Takin' care of your old man or your old lady |
[01:42.66] | And the direct line to the hospital just says "Leave a message" |
[01:47.34] | See, you can only live one day at a time |
[01:49.76] | Only drive one hot rod at a time |
[01:51.90] | Only say one word at a time |
[01:53.61] | And only think one thought at a time |
[01:56.47] | And every soul is alone when the day becomes night |
[01:59.88] | And there in the dark if you can try to see the light |
[02:02.45] | In the most pitch black shape of the loneliest shadow |
[02:06.41] | Well then you ought to sleep well |
[02:08.21] | 'Cause there's hope for sure |
[02:11.43] | Well I don't know about all that being true but |
[02:13.84] | I do know this |
[02:15.63] | The best beggars are choosers |
[02:18.02] | The best winners are losers |
[02:21.01] | The best lovers ain't never been loved |
[02:26.64] | And first place ain't easy |
[02:29.31] | The hardest part is believing |
[02:32.18] | The very last word is love |
[02:40.09] | I'm a high steppin', high bettin' |
[02:43.32] | Love givin', I'm a love gettin' |
[02:45.73] | I'm a stranger, I love stretchin' out my wheels |
[02:51.94] | Overnightin' on the desert strip |
[02:54.31] | Makin' time and losin' grip |
[02:57.26] | Drivin' circles in the canyons of my mind |
