- Hey let him follow you down,
way underground wind and he's bound.
Bound to follow you down,
just a dead beat right off the street.
Bound to follow you down.
Well the ballrooms and smelly bordellos
and dressing rooms filled with parasites.
On stage the band has got problems,
they're a bag of nerves on first nights.
He ain't tied down to no home town,
yeah, and he thought he was wreckless.
You think he's bad, he thinks you're mad,
yeah, and the guitar player gets restless.
Well his coat is torn and frayed,
it's seen much better days.
Just as long as the guitar plays
let it steal your heart away,
let it steal your heart away.
Joe's got a cough, sounds kind a rough,
yeah, and the codeine to fix it.
Doctor prescribes, drug store supplies,
who's gonna help him to kick it?
Well his coat is torn and frayed,
it`s seen much better days.
Just as long as the guitar plays
let it steal your heart away,
let it steal your heart away.

Head underwater
Keeps getting hotter
Give 'em your medicine
[Fame] injection
Tell them to jump higher
Tell 'em to run farther
Make 'em measure up
Decades longer than you
[Piece] it together
It's like weather
Watch him travel
Kiss the gravel
Tell him to jump higher
Tell him to run farther
Make him measure up
Ten times longer than you
Ever should, you never could
explain them to me, explain them to me |
