[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
