He's just a kid and loves to ride
Taking the freeway, driving blind
Just like a loaded gun, he pushes down the hammer
Hard to fire
In the embrace of his gasoline lover her sleek body wraps all around
Turns on the radio, lights up his cigarette takes the lights up, dims them down
A silent Geisha, the perfect seducer knows someone is waiting too long
Oh
Will you be home tonight
Oh
Please say you'll be there
He's just a kid who loves to drive
To get out of sight out of his mind
He pushed the hammer down
And shot just like a bullet from a gun
Drunk on the fix of the powerful kick as he shoots up from zero to speed
Has one more drink of the cold liquid courage to keep on the level he needs
Soothed by the sound of the wheels on the ground but he won't hear the tires when they scream
Oh
Will you be home tonight
Oh
Please say you'll be there
Oh
Will you be home tonight
Oh
Please say you'll be there
Oh
Will you be home tonight
Oooooooooh will you be there
Oooooooooh please be there
Oooooooooh be home tonight
