Sleepy town ain't got the guts to budge 
Baby this emptiness has already been judged 
I wanna go out tonight, I wanna find out what I got 
You're a strange part of me you're a preacher's girl 
And I don't want no piece of this mechanical world 
Got my arms open wide and my blood is running hot 
 
We'll take the midnight road right to the devil's door 
And even the white angels of Eden with their flaming swords 
Won't be able to stop us from hitting town in this dirty old Ford 
Well it don't take no nerve when you got nothing to guard 
I got tombstone in my eyes and I'm running real hard 
My baby was a lover and the world just blew her away 
 
Once they tried to steal my heart, beat it right out of my head 
Well baby they didn't know that I was born dead 
I am the iceman, fighting for the right to live 
I say better than the glory roads of heaven 
Better off riding hell-bound in the dirt 
Better than bright line of the freeway 
Better than the shadows of your daddy's church 
Better than the hands of waiting (?) 
Baby better off is the search
