|
There's a black cat down on the quayside |
|
Ship's lights, green eyes glowing in the dark |
|
Two young cops handing out a beating |
|
Know how to hurt and leave no mark |
|
Down in the half-lit bar of the hotel |
|
There's a call for the last round of the day |
|
Push back the stool, take that elevator ride |
|
Fall in bed and kick my shoes away |
|
Kick my shoes away, kick my shoes away |
|
Rocks on the road, yeah |
|
Can't sleep through the wild sound of the city |
|
Hear a car full of young boys heading for a fight |
|
Long distance telephone keeps ringing out engaged |
|
Wonder who you're talking with tonight, talking with tonight |
|
Who you talking with tonight? |
|
Rocks on the road, yeah |
|
Tired plumbing wakes me in the morning |
|
Shower runs hot, runs cold playing with me |
|
Well, I'm up for the down side, life's a bitch |
|
And all that stuff |
|
So come and shake some apples from my tree |
|
Have to pay for my mini bar madness |
|
Itemized phone bill overload |
|
Well now, how about some heavy rolling? |
|
Move these rocks on the road, on the road |
|
Rocks on the road |
|
Crumbs on the breakfast table |
|
And a million other little things to spoil my day |
|
Now how about a little light music |
|
To chase it all away? |
|
Chase it all away |
|
There's a black cat down on the quayside |
|
Ship's lights, green eyes glowing in the dark |
|
Two young cops handing out a beating |
|
Know how to hurt an' leave no mark |
|
Down in the half-lit bar of the hotel |
|
There's a call for the last round of the day |
|
Push back the stool, take that elevator ride |
|
Fall in bed and kick my shoes away |
|
Kick my shoes away, kick my shoes away |
|
Rocks on the road |
|
Kick my shoes away, kick my shoes away |
|
Rocks on the road, yeah |
