Outskirts

Written by bob welch and john carter.





Last night red lights & sirens sound

Nine miles on a back street looking out of town

Out of touch going underground

Looking into the mirror

You can see 'em bearing down



(chorus)

Long road winding, headlights in the dark

Don't know where we're going, but it can't be to far...



Ten g's three for you the rest i'll keep

No clues no avenues, it's a perfect scheme

Outskirts hang a left at the hanging tree

Cause they say they're going to get you

But they won't mess with me



(chorus)

Long road burnin', you know you can't look back

Cause everywhere you are turning

You can't escape the fact...



Yeah they're getting closer now

Step on it man, you know they're gaining ground

Not afraid to die untill right now

I can almost feel them breathing, fear for me..



Last night murder one was in the air

Johnny didn't mean to do it, he was really scared

Outlaws runnin' hiding who knows where

Next time your on the outskirts, i'll be waiting there...



(chorus)



Long road a winding, headlights in the dark

Long road returning

Like a knife in your heart



I'm on the outskirts now...
