Wings For Wheels

The screen door slams, christine's
(angelina's) dress waves
Like a vision she dances across the
Porch as the radio plays
Roy orbison singing for the lonely
(hey) that's me (babe) and I want you only
Don't turn me home again
I just can't face myself alone
(in that mirror) again tonight
Don't run back inside
You know just what I'm here for
So you're scared and you're thinking
That maybe you (we) ain't that young anymore
Show a little faith
(well woman) there's magic in the night
You ain't a beauty but hey
(baby, ah) you're alright
And that's alright with me

This 4 4 she's gonna overheat
Make up your mind girl I gotta get
Her back out on the street
I know you're lonely like me so
Baby don't try and fake it
I'm no prince and I can't lay
The stars at your feet
But I got this old car and
She's pretty tough to beat
There's plenty of room in my front seat
Baby if you wanna take it

Oh roll down the window and let
The wind blow back your hair
It's like the rushing touch
The dirty wings them highway angels wear
Well tonight we're gonna find
Out how it feels
I'm gonna trade in your wings - for wheels
Climb in back
Heaven's waiting down on the tracks
Ah, mama, come take my hand
(well now try hard chrissie to understand)
We're gonna ride all the way
To the promised land
Oh I'm gonna dance all the way
Dance all the way (babe if you're born with
Nothing in your hands
Hey it's your only chance)

Well I don't know but baby I've been told
There's something waiting for us
Down that dirty road
Oh take a chance, take a chance
Take a chance (oh I wish you would come
So leave what you've lost
Leave what's grown old on thunder road)

Well now I bought this guitar and I
Learned how to make it talk
I got my car parked out back if
You're ready to take that long walk
From your front porch to my front seat
Well I think we could take it all babe
Just you and me
Climb in back baby, the ride's for free
Oh come take my hand
We're gonna ride all the way
To the promised land we'll dance all the way
Oh baby I don't know but I've been told
There's something waiting for us
Down that dirty road
If we take our chance, take our chance

Now the season's over and I
Feel it getting cold
I wish I could take you to some
Sandy beach where we'd never grow old
Ah but baby you know that's just jive
But tonight's bustin' open and I'm alive
Oh do (baby) whay you can to make
Me feel like a man but this 4
4 2's gonna overheat
Make up your mind girl
I gotta get her back out on the street
I know you're lonely like me
Oh so don't fake it
And maybe I can't lay the stars at your feet
But I got this old car and
She's pretty tough to beat
There's plenty of room in my front seat
Oh if you think you can make it, climb in
(so christine climb in)
This is town full of losers and
Baby I was born to win
