When your chips are down When your highs are low Reaching for the light Knowing we can't win It's getting close to sundown over the Sierra Stranded on the freeway burning with desire She was on the sidewalk looking for a night light

Am I asleep? (wanting peace) We fall in space (something takes a hold of me) Peace I have found Or have I died We can't look down, Death may come, I want to say my whole life, We fall down.

You get tired and disgusted with me But I can't be just what you want me to be I still love you and I try real hard I swear one day you'll have a brand new car I even asked God to try to help me He looked down from Heaven and said to tell you please Just

I am and I'll be I am: I'm me (I am: I'm me) I am: I'm me I will, you'll see I am: I'm me (can't you see, I'm me) I am: I'm me (I'm me, I'm me) Who are you to look down at what I believe? I'm on to your thinking and how you deceive Well, you can't abuse

I can't help feelin' like I do I've always bee the kind of man to jump the gun, and cut and run. Stayin' one step agead of that ol' ball and chain. Settlin' down never crossed my mind. It was easier to leave the knot untied. It looks like a lot of things

Oh, my, don't the sky look spacious With the stars all shinin' down Well, I can hear the night wind howlin' It's a high and lonesome sound And I ain't had a woman in so long I can't feed my starvin soul Come on, saddle up, boys, we're gonna ride into

Well baby, there you stand With your little head, down in your hand Oh, my God, you can't believe it's happening again Your baby's gone, and you're all alone And it looks like the end And you're back out on the street And you're tryin' to remember How do
