The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Drive me home silver eagle
Drive me away from last night's news
Empty beds, crowds of people
Oh come on, white girl, sing the blues
Warm mister, hold me like you love me
Why don't you make me feel real good for free?
And if free don't mean for nothing
Let's just say this one's on me
Yeah
You know I
CHORUS:
Sold my soul to rock 'n roll
I bought these devil chains
My baby wants me home, can't refuse him
Sold my soul to rock 'n roll
It's time to take that train
The one that goes from heaven
Straight to Houston, oh
Oh, I need a short vacation
Restin' in my baby's arms
But the road goes on forever, forever, forever
It keeps on going, but I'm gone
oh oh oh
CHORUS
Did you like it?
Was it good?
Did it make you wanna cry?
Did you like it?
Am I good?
Is it worth another try?
Sold my soul to rock 'n roll
It's time to take that train
The one that goes from heaven
Straight to Houston
The one that goes from heaven
Straight to Houston
