| A worried man with a worried mind
|
| No one in front of me and nothing behind
|
| There’s a woman on my lap and she’s drinking champagne
|
| Got white skin, got assassin’s eyes
|
| I’m looking up into the sapphire tinted skies
|
| I’m well dressed, waiting on the last train
|
| Bridge #1:
|
| Standing on the gallows with my head in a noose
|
| Any minute now I’m expecting all hell to break loose
|
| Chorus
|
| People are crazy and times are strange
|
| I’m locked in tight, I’m out of range
|
| I used to care, but things have changed
|
| This place ain’t doing me any good
|
| I’m in the wrong town, I should be in Hollywood
|
| Just for a second there I thought I saw something move
|
| Gonna take dancing lessons do the jitterbug rag
|
| Ain’t no shortcuts, gonna dress in drag
|
| Only a fool in here would think he’s got anything to prove
|
| Bridge #2
|
| Lot of water under the bridge, Lot of other stuff too
|
| Don’t get up gentlemen, I’m only passing through
|
| (chorus)
|
| I’ve been walking forty miles of bad road
|
| If the bible is right, the world will explode
|
| I’ve been trying to get as far away from myself as I can
|
| Some things are too hot to touch
|
| The human mind can only stand so much
|
| You can’t win with a losing hand
|
| Bridge #3
|
| Feel like falling in love with the first woman I meet
|
| Putting her in a wheel barrow and wheeling her down the street
|
| (chorus)
|
| I hurt easy, I just don’t show it
|
| You can hurt someone and not even know it
|
| The next sixty seconds could be like an eternity
|
| Gonna get low down, gonna fly high
|
| All the truth in the world adds up to one big lie
|
| I’m in love with a woman who don’t even appeal to me
|
| Bridge #4
|
| Mr. Jinx and Miss Lucy, they jumped in the lake
|
| I’m not that eager to make a mistake
|
| (chorus) |
