One, two, three, four!

Cold rain pourin' and I'm feelin' hurt

With my back wheel spinnin' in the dirt

Angel makes up her face down on lonely street

Won't you straddle the shifter in my front seat

There's nothing to lose, it's a heartbreak, the deck's stacked

Just put your foot to the floor and darling don't look back

Won't you cool me down in this blazin' rain

Cause I'm blowin' pistons, workin' the fast lane

With the poor boy's dream, my pocket's full of cash

Baby writes her name in lipstick there on my dash

There's nothing to lose, it's a bad break to face facts

Just keep your eyes on the road and darling don't look back

We held it in our hearts in the pourin' rain

We made it through the heart of the hurricane

We tore it apart and we put it together again

Whoa-whoa-whoa

Baby won't you believe in love for me

And I will meet you tonight on that lonely street

When you look sight's blindfold on shooting stars

You gotta walk it talk it in your heart

There's nothing to lose, it's a heartbreak, the deck's stacked

So put your foot to the floor and darling

Just keep your eyes on the road now baby

Tonight we'll even the score and no we won't look back

Yeah!

Don't look, don't look

Don't look, don't look

Don't look, don't look

Don't look, don't look

Don't look, don't look

Don't look, don't look
