Red Lights And Neon Lyrics
I hope you don't mind if I
Rest inside your door
Please forgive the snowy footprints
I'm tracking on your floor.
I only want to stop and rest
Don't want to start no fight.
I'll just wait here for a while
'Till the police car's out of sight.
For as long as I remember
I've hated those red lights
And hotel rooms with plaster walls
And loud and lonely nights.
It seems like I've been on this road
Ever since I was a kid
I could tell if I was sorry
If I remembered what I did.
A wanted man in New Orleans
Matches my description.
Mister druggist please be kind enough
To refill my prescription.
If I had to do it over
This ain't the life I'd choose
But the road still runs and so do I
And at least I made the news.
And the streetlights never waver
And the red lights never dim
And the neon always glitters
And it was better me than him.
Boiled In Lead Red Lights And Neon
