She just wanted to ride in a Delahaye 135 She just wanted to ride in a Hudson Commodore No need to worry anymore Time between the glory days and the golden years She did the work of twenty able men Sent Tommy off to school to be an engineer And Sarah

Glory days, glory days Glory days in the wink of a young girl's eye Glory days well they'll pass you by Well alright oo yeah Well alright come on now I had a friend was a big baseball player Back in high school He could throw that speed ball by you Make

Going down in flames Going down in a blaze of glory My last days We shall see They are coming now They're after me They want blood Yes it's true Going quietly I just don't do

Pray for one last chance to prove we all belong Through the dark nights and cold days while time marches on In this life, we're running out of days We're running out of time, ignoring it's a crime No regrets, just one shot at glory Is all we got before

Rumours of glory Something is shining Like gold but better Above the dark town After the sun's gone down Two vapour trails cross the sky Catching the day's last slow goodbye Black skyline looks rich as velvet Smiles mixed with curses The crowd disperses

Need a little time to wake up wake up What's the story morning glory? Need a little time to wake up All your dreams are made When you're chained to the mirror and the razor blade Today's the day that all the world will see Another sunny afternoon Walking
