Outsider

Jimmy was the son of a sailor

Another lonely military brat

Norfolk, Virgina, Vallejo

Bags always packed

Now his mother was always out drinking

On midnight maneuvers of her own

Jimmy would sit there and stare at the clock

And one night she never came home

That's how he learned the facts of life

From a mother and a sailor's wife

Now he's out there somewhere on his own

He's always been an

Outsider

Taking on the world alone

Such an outsider

And it really doesn't matter who's right or wrong

'Cause sooner or later he's gone

Outsider

Jimmy tried his luck in the Navy

To see the world just like his old man

But too many rules and too many fools

Spoiled his plans

Now he's driving a truck through the Southland

Pulling anything that money can buy

He knows how it feels to fall asleep at the wheel

So he takes a little pill to get by

He's living on borrowed time

He doesn't see the danger signs

Now he's out there somewhere on his own

He's always been an

Outsider

Taking on the world again

Such an outsider

And it really doesn't matter who's right or wrong

'Cause sooner or later he's gone

Ooh sweet isolation

Aah the perfect situation

Outsider outsider

He's living on the border line

Living in a different time

Now he's out there somewhere on his own

He's always been an outsider

He's aking on the world alone

Such an outsider

And it really doesn't matter who's right or wrong

'Cause sooner or later he's gone

Outsider
