The screen door slams, christines (angelinas) dress waves
Like a vision she dances across the porch as the radio plays
Roy orbison singing for the lonely
(hey) thats me (babe) and I want you only
Dont turn me home again
I just cant face myself alone (in that mirror) again tonight
Dont run back inside, you know just what Im here for
So youre scared and youre thinking
That maybe you (we) aint that young anymore
Show a little faith (well woman) theres magic in the night
You aint a beauty but hey (baby, ah) youre alright
And thats alright with me
This 4/4 shes gonna overheat
Make up your mind girl I gotta get her back out on the street
I know youre lonely like me so baby dont try and fake it
Im no prince and I cant lay the stars at your feet
But I got this old car and shes pretty tough to beat
Theres 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
Its like the rushing touch, the dirty wings them highway angels wear
Well tonight were gonna find out how it feels
Im gonna trade in your wings - for wheels
Climb in back, heavens waiting down on the tracks
Ah, mama, come take my hand (well now try hard chrissie to understand)
Were gonna ride all the way to the promised land
Oh Im gonna dance all the way, dance all the way
(babe if youre born with nothing in your hands
Hey its your only chance)
Well I dont know but baby Ive been told
Theres 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 youve lost, leave whats 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 youre 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 rides for free
Oh come take my hand, were gonna ride all the way to the promised land
Well dance all the way
Oh baby I dont know but Ive been told
Theres something waiting for us, down that dirty road
If we take our chance, take our chance
Now the seasons over and I feel it getting cold
I wish I could take you to some sandy beach where wed never grow old
Ah but baby you know thats just jive
But tonights bustin open and Im alive
Oh do (baby) whay you can to make me feel like a man
But this 4/4/2s gonna overheat
Make up your mind girl, I gotta get her back out on the street
I know youre lonely like me, oh so dont fake it
And maybe I cant lay the stars at your feet
But I got this old car and shes pretty tough to beat
Theres 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
