It's steamin' |
|
and I'm screamin' down |
|
that red hot blacktop |
|
on cruise control |
|
and my tires are tired |
|
but I still got such a |
|
long way to go... 'till I'm |
|
coastin' back to that west coast |
|
north of movie town |
|
where my baby's waitin' |
|
holdin' down that home ground |
|
holdin' down that home ground |
|
when it's freezin' |
|
so cold in the mornin' |
|
ya know I really hate to go |
|
don't need no stage door jennie, no bad luck penny |
|
lookin' for a one night Romeo |
|
was a time I was crazy |
|
I played a fool... I was a clown |
|
now I got my baby |
|
Shes a holdin' down the home ground |
|
holdin' down the home ground |
|
This room service lifestyle |
|
it's OK for a while |
|
but a little homecookin' would sure bring a smile |
|
there was a caterer in decatur |
|
she once grabbed my eye |
|
but I came to my senses |
|
and passed on the my...my...my... |
|
Now I'm dreamin' |
|
bout that old coast highway |
|
the castles made of stone |
|
and the road through the mountain |
|
that's where I'm countin' on makin my turn for home |
|
I'm breakin' all the limits |
|
way past the speed of sound |
|
gettin' back with my baby |
|
Shes a holdin' down the home ground |
|
holdin' down the home ground |
|
holdin' down the home ground |
