Song language: English
North East South West |
Bated breath and the guts to go |
Criss-crossing the continent all aglow |
Leaving lovelorn, dating destiny |
And living for the moment that she marries me |
Started this song in the southern states |
Rays by the river, sinning at The Saint |
Hot and heavy when I hit the hay |
In N-O-L-A, USA |
Coast of California, the highway high |
Noise, narcotics, and the New York night |
An unshaven shaman shaking down the day |
And all manner of madness standing in my way |
Down in flames with dice to roll |
Up in smoke, running roulette road |
And, man, America made a mess of me |
When I messed with Texas and Tennessee |
North, east, south, west, coast to coast |
Baby, the trouble that I get into |
North, east, south, west, coast to coast |
It ain’t shit compared to loving you |
North, east, south, west, coast to coast |
Baby, the trouble that I get into |
North, east, south, west, coast to coast |
It ain’t shit, it’s just kicks |
And like the road, I’m going on and on and on |
Flayed and gutted, so I’ve got to go |
Back home, hungry for a hand to hold |
And no matter how much I fan the flames |
Canada always answers when I call her name |
Down and out, drinking Dundas dry |
Up against the wall of a winter’s night |
Toronto, I’m trusting you to the cut the cane |
‘Cause I’m saving Vancouver for a rainy day |
North, east, south, west, coast to coast |
Baby, the trouble that I get into |
North, east, south, west, coast to coast |
It ain’t shit compared to loving you |
North, east, south, west, coast to coast |
Baby, the trouble that I get into |
North, east, south, west, coast to coast |
It ain’t shit, it’s just kicks |
And like the road, I’m going on and on and on |
Learn to let it go, baby |
(Whoa oh oh, oh oh oh) |
Shake, rattle, and roll, baby |
(Whoa oh oh, oh oh oh) |
Out of the city you’ve seen |
(Whoa oh oh, oh oh oh) |
And into some trouble with me |
(Whoa oh oh, oh oh oh) |
We’ll go north, east, south, west |
(Whoa oh oh, oh oh oh) |
We’ll go north, east, south, west |
(Whoa oh oh, oh oh oh) |
We’ll go north, east, south, west |
(Whoa oh oh, oh oh oh) |
We’ll go north, east, south, west |
(Whoa oh oh, oh oh oh) |
(Whoa oh oh, oh oh oh) |
(Whoa oh oh, oh oh oh) |
(Whoa oh oh, oh oh oh) |
