Lyrics

I met her in a shootin' gallery, speedin' like a goose Back when both of us were used to makin' strangers She shook me down for all I had and every way but loose But I was still too juiced to feel the danger And anyway now, anymore, you don't know which is worse Fallin' out of love or left behind I've just seen the sweetest dreamin' wind up like a curse Maybe one too many times But she said, "I don't want you, baby, I just want someone to hold I got too much rock and roll to be your wife I can't live without the lightnin', man, I'm scared of growin' older So I'm bound to keep on runnin' for my life" I seen her roll herself into a tight and tiny ball Like a belly gunner crouchin' in a turret I said, "I recognize the symptoms, girl, I got the same disease I just haven't got a clue to how to cure it" Anyway now, anymore, you don't know who to trust This love is wild as lust and just as blind Anyone who's ever gonna love me better fool me first Maybe, baby, I've been one too many times But she said, "I don't want you, baby, I just want someone to hold I got too much rock and roll to be your wife I can't live without the lightnin', man, I'm scared of growin' older So I'm bound to keep on runnin' for my life"
