Getting crazy on the waltzers, but it's the life that I choose
Sing about the sixblade sing about the switchback and a torture tatoo
(0:54)
And I've been riding on a ghost train
where the cars they scream and slam
And I don't know where I'll be tonight but I'd always tell you where I am
(1:08)
In a screaming ring of faces
I seen her standing in the light
(1:15)
She had a ticket for the races just like me she was a victim of the night
I put my hand upon the lever
said let it rock and let it roll
(1:29)
I had the one arm bandit fever
there was an arrow through my heart and my soul
And the big wheel keep on turning
neon burning , up above
(1:44)
And I am high on the world
come on and take a low ride with me girl.
On the tunnel of love.
It's just the danger when you're riding at your own risk
She said you are the perfect stranger she said baby let's keep it like this
(2:12)
It's just a cakewalk
twisting baby step right up and say
Hey mister give me two give me two cos any two can play
(2:25)
And the big wheel keep on turning
neon burning , up above
And I am high on the world
come on take a low ride with me girl.
On the tunnel of love.
(2:47)
Well it's been money for muscle another whirligig
Money for muscle another girl I dig
Another hustle just to make it big
and rock away rock away rock away
(3:05)
And girl, it looks so pretty to me , just like it always did
Like the Spanish city to me, when we were kids.
Oh girl it looks so pretty to me , like it always did
Like the Spanish city to me , when we were kids.
(3:32)
(4:00)
She took off a silver locket she said remenber me by this
She put her hand in my pocket
I got a keepsake and a kiss
(4:20)
And in the roar of dust and diesel
I stood and watched her walk away
I could have caught up with her easy enough but something must have made me stay
And the big wheel keep on turning , neon burning , up above
(4:41)
And I am high on this world
come on take a low ride with me girl.
(4:47)
On the tunnel of love.
On the tunnel of love.
And now I'm searching through these carousels and the carnival arcades
Searching everywhere from steeplechase and palisades
(5:09)
In any shooting gallery where promises are made
To rock away rock away rock away rock away
from cullercoats and whitley bay out to rockaway
(ARPIGGIATED CHORDS)
And girl it looks so pretty to me , like it always did
Like the Spanish city to me , when we were kids.
And girl it looks so pretty to me , like it always did
Like the Spanish city to me , when we were kids.
