One For The Road

It was 1985
We were young and wild and free
We dreamed of playing rock’n roll
and sitting in a black limousine… we still believe!
It’s been a long time since we rock the world
long away from the road
Like a gypsies with their lives
always ready to leave their homes
We sold our souls for rock ‘n roll
Feel the freedom call
Feel the fever is rising
This time we ain’t gonna fall
It’s hard to say for you baby
but I know you understand
We are modern indians riding in the sun
and this is our promised land
This is the way we want to live – this is the way we die!
One for the road – one for you
Your heart is gold – and I feel so blue
One for the road – two for us
Life is a trip and I feel the rush
The world is full of temptations
Playground of the sin
Living in a backstage
it’s a kind of life of kings
You can get a queen if you want
just a little blink
Afterparties on the bus
then the final drink
This is the way we want to live – this is the way we die!
One for the road – one for you
Your heart is gold – and I feel so blue
One for the road – two for us
Life is a trip and I feel the rush
