Since you came from Memphis
You can look but please don't touch
Didn't like rock and rollers
Seemed a bit much too much

Cause it's the natural thing feeling the star
Natural blood starts to flow
Yeah, the natural thing, get up a star
Then she'll never let you go

Hey girl, now does it feel all right
Think I'm getting through
Don't you think the band's real tight
Wait til we start to move

May sound funny but you gave it to me
I didn't even like it
May sound funny but you gave it to me
And now I got to live without it

I been down to Atlanta
Got to move my feet
Getting down before the last call
With every star she meets

Cause it's the natural thing feelin' the star
Natural blood starts to flow
Yeah, the natural thing, get up a star
Then she'll never let you go

May sound funny but you gave it to me
I didn't even like it
May sound funny but you gave it to me
And now I got to live without it

Cause it's the natural thing feelin' the star
Natural blood starts to flow
Yeah, the natural thing, get up a star
Then she'll never let you go

Why'd you do it, why'd you do it

Last train's eleven, it's now quarter past
Why're you tryin' to make the evenin' move so fast
I'm in real trouble but I can't go back home
They locked the doors and I'm left out alone

You can come to my place and sleep on the couch
Lots of people do it and we won't leave you out
Hard times out on the street
Hard times, hard to beat

The painted lies they all hand you
I'm a loser on the road
I'm a loser on the road, yeah

Houston station and it's cold as ice
All night specials, they move you on
But me and Ginger over there
We got this thing where we really take care


You can come to my place and sleep on the couch
Lots of people do it and we won't leave you out
Hard times out on the street
Hard times, hard to beat

The painted lies they all hand you
I'm a loser on the road
I'm a loser on the road, yeah

I'm a loser, I'm a loser
I'm a loser

Fast as light our jets were burnin'
On the road a distant sirens song
Hands upon my engines growin'
Vincents deep throat breathin' out so strong
I can hold her, can you roll her

Riding like there's no tomorrow
Silent song sure is growin' stronger
Shadow reached a high note
And in the distance electric lights no longer
I can hold her, can you roll her
I can hold her, can you roll her
I can hold her, can you roll her

Fast as light our jets were burnin'
On the road a distant sirens song
Hands upon my engines growin'
Vincents deep throat breathin' out so strong
I can hold her, can you roll her

I can hold her, can you roll her
I can hold her, can you roll her
I can hold her, can You roll her
I can hold her, can you roll her

Oh Belladonna never knew the pain
Maybe I'm crazy, maybe it'll drive you insane
The open letter just carelessly placed
And you move in silence, the tea so delicately laced

Out of reach, out of touch
How you've learned to hate so much

Came from passion, and you gave it a name
The fingers are poisoned like needles in the drivin' rain
So smile discreetly as you watch with such grace
Now I must slip away, but can you forget my face

Out of reach, out of touch
How you've learned to hate so much
Out of reach, out of touch
How you've learned to hate so much

New feel of you runnin' through my vein
Little bit of everything
You know that's what you said

Try hard, try hard to reason, reasons love
Try hard, try hard to reason, reasons love

Cause always you indulge
And parents try to get you out of these jams
You got that envy cause they won't understand


The social life you lead leaves nothin' to desire
Don't wanna see you bleed
But you came on like a liar

Try hard, try hard to reason, reasons love
Try hard, try hard to reason, reasons love

Cause always you indulge
And parents try to get you out of these jams
You got that envy cause they won't understand

Wrecked myself to love you
All you want is more
One thing you're after
You just try and score

Try hard, try hard to reason, reasons love
Try hard, try hard to reason, reasons love

Cause always you indulge
And parents try to get you out of these jams
You got that envy cause they won't understand

Run down, low down, don't feel tired
Take no orders, don't get fired
I waste away cruisin' along

Fighting blizzards, raging storms
Hope the wheels know I'm born to ramble o
Cruising along
But I stop, turn my head around
Sleep until tomorrow, in my arms
In my arms,
Highway lady, dream the big top high above
Highway lady, highways make you smile again
How she feels

Found my way to Spanish stairs
Small corruption, no one cares about tasty life
Cruisin' along

Fighting blizzards, raging storms
Hope the wheels know I'm born to ramble o
Cruising along
But I stop, turn my head around
Sleep until tomorrow, in my arms
In my arms,
Highway lady, dream the big top high above
Highway lady, highways make you smile again
How she feels

Fighting blizzards, raging storms
Hope the wheels know I'm born to ramble o
Cruising along
But I stop, turn my head around
Sleep until tomorrow, in my arms
In my arms,
Highway lady, dream the big top high above
Highway lady, highways make you smile again
How she feels

How she feels
Highway lady, highway lady
Highway lady, highway lady

Something going on at the corner of the block
It's the kids down there
They were startin' to rock
Hot black fever runnin every place
When the Greek kid pulled a knife and pushed it in his face
Some girl makes it with a lover in the dark
As the ambulance pulls away, she cries out more

And it's all night long, all night long
On with the action
Lead the fastest loves alive
On with the action
If you can't run you can't survive
On with the action
Mama's boy and teacher's pet
On with the action
It's down our street, is it in yours yet


All the kids stand laughin'
They never had such fun
Then someone cuts a brown man who just can't run
And the queen that's been standin' behind the toilet door
His parents don't like boyfriends, call him a whore
But the minister's starin' with his bible in his hand
Was this Gods children, he didn't understand

And it's all night long, all night long
On with the action
Lead the fastest loves alive
On with the action
If you can't run you can't survive
On with the action
Mama's boy and teacher's pet
On with the action
It's down our street, is it in yours yet

And it's all night long, all night long
On with the action
Lead the fastest loves alive
On with the action
If you can't run you can't survive
On with the action
Mama's boy and teacher's pet
On with the action
It's down our street, is it in yours yet

She told me her story, hoped I would understand
And I listened closely, as anybody can
But there's a distant look that's in her eyes
And as the nights grow longer, alone in bed she cries

My baby met a man on her first date
He stole her heart an' sealed her fate
And she thought she'd found a friend for life
He wanted her but not to be a wife

A fool for love never wonders why
She hangs on in but it's just another goodbye

Now every day is like another day
She lets it all drift on away
An' every man is like another man
They come and go but she never can

And from sixteen to thirty-two
She lost her loves and her good looks too
It's so sad to see at first hand
From a teenage beauty to a one night stand

A fool for love never wonders why
She hangs on in but it's just another goodbye

Now every day is like another day
She lets it all drift on away
An' every man is like another man
They come and go but she never can

Now every day is like another day
She lets it all drift on away
An' every man is like another man
They come and go but she never can

Now every day is like another day
She lets it all drift on away
An' every man is like another man
They come and go but she never can

Come from the land where the wheat is still wheat
Where the waters in the rivers is still water
In this land every man lends a hand when you need it
But your hands are full of life
So you can help yourself and feel it
It's been a long way from the red of my home
From the valleys and the green plains never ending

Everyone knows that the sun in his land is stronger
And your hands are full of life
If you can only wait just longer

So let it be a small haven big in Your heart
Don't let it turn into an ogre
Tryin' to climb and climb
and forget this place where
I can still find time
To sing in rhyme

Martian landscape.
I'll learn to lie in your arms
Where all the freedom is mine and it comes
Martian landscape,
I'll turn my face to your sun
Where your horizon is mine and it comes

Come from the land where the wheat is still wheat
Where the waters in the rivers is still water
In this land every man lends a hand when you need it
But your hands are full of life
So you can help yourself and feel it
It's been a long way from the red of my home
From the valleys and the green plains never ending

So let it be a small haven big in Your heart
Don't let it turn into an ogre
Tryin' to climb and climb
and forget this place where
I can still find time
To sing in rhyme

Martian landscape.
I'll learn to lie in your arms
Where all the freedom is mine and it comes
Martian landscape,
I'll turn my face to your sun
Where your horizon is mine and it comes

Martian landscape
Martian landscape
