Lyrics

[00:00.930] There's gotta be a record of you some place
[00:05.260] You gotta be on somebody's books
[00:09.550] The lowdown, a picture of your face
[00:14.630] Your injured looks
[00:18.310] The sacred and profane
[00:22.240] The pleasure and the pain
[00:25.190] Somewhere your fingerprints remain concrete
[00:31.860] And it's your face I'm looking for
[00:37.530] On every street
[00:53.760] A ladykiller, regulation tattoo
[00:58.540] Silver spurs on his heels
[01:01.780] Says what can I tell you as I'm standing next to you
[01:07.350] She threw herself under my wheels
[01:11.450] Oh it's a dangerous road
[01:15.540] And a hazardous load
[01:18.590] And the fireworks over liberty expode in the heat
[01:25.310] And it's your face I'm looking for
[01:31.190] On every street
[01:56.680] A three-chord symphony crashes into space
[02:01.660] The moon is hanging upside down
[02:05.890] I don't know why it is I'm still on the case
[02:11.070] It's a ravenous town
[02:14.750] And you still refuse to be traced
[02:18.690] Seems to me such a waste
[02:22.730] And every victory has a taste that's bittersweet
[02:28.960] And it's your face I'm looking for
[02:34.780] On every street
[02:39.160] And it's your face I'm looking for
[02:44.630] On every street
