I was out on the road to nowhere leaving nowhere far behind
The road was wide and empty, I had nuthin' playin' on my mind
That car was travellin' to damn fast, there was nuthin' I could do
So I just sat back and closed my eyes and went along for the ride and the view
Along for the ride and the view.
I was lying on my hotel bed, there was a hooker on the floor
I had just laid out all the money I had and she whupped me
'till I shouted "No more, no more, no more!"
That girl was travellin' too damn fast, there was nuthin' I could do
So I just sat back and closed my eyes and went along for the ride and the view
Along for the ride and the view.
I was out on the street and howling, I was a zoned-out Romeo
When a thousand golden-haired, sweet-talking angels asked me
if I was ready to go. I said "No"
But time was travellin' too damn fast, there was nuthin' I could do
So I just sat back and closed my eyes and went along for the ride and the view
Along for the ride and the view.
