Bob Welch Outskirts
Last night red lights & sirens sound Nine miles on a back street looking out of town Out of touch going underground Looking into the mirror You can see 'em bearing down (chorus) Long road winding, headlights in the dark Don't know where we're going, but it can't be to far... Ten g's three for you the rest I'll keep No clues no avenues, it's a perfect scheme Outskirts hang a left at the hanging tree Cause they say they're going to get you But they won't mess with me (chorus) Long road burnin', you know you can't look back Cause everywhere you are turning You can't escape the fact... Yeah they're getting closer now Step on it man, you know they're gaining ground Not afraid to die until right now I can almost feel them breathing, fear for me.. Last night murder one was in the air Johnny didn't mean to do it, he was really scared Outlaws runnin' hiding who knows where Next time your on the outskirts, I'll be waiting there... (chorus) Long road a winding, headlights in the dark Long road returning Like a knife in your heart I'm on the outskirts now...
