Lyric Down The Road

(Steve Walsh / Kerry Livgren)

I m in a kind of foolish game, I try to get rich quick,
But I m going insane,
The kind of freaks that hang out on 42nd Street
They re all pimpin Judys and poppin speed, well
It s a game of cat and mouse, and I think it s got my soul,
I think it s time for thinkin bout a time to roll on
Down the road

Here comes Big Mike, I kinda owe him some beans,
He must be crazy, I guess that s why he s so mean,
If I tell him I m leavin , he would sure enough split my gut,
Cause he knows I sold to a sucker, and I owe Big Mike a cut,
But I ll slip him a 20-dollar bill till I get out of town,
When I hit those white lines, I m gonna be gone like a
Greyhound down the road
