MEAT LOAF - Living On The Outside lyrics

rate me

I've got steel on my fingers, granite on my breath

A bottle in one ear and a spike in my chest

A nickel in my boot and my finger in a damn

I hang out with a bunch of losers I call my friends, and we sing

oooh

oooh

oooh

oooh

But I'm headin' out today, I'm goin' down Elijah's way

Spinnin' wheels on fire, with my speed needle between my jeans

So darlin', show my what you're hiding behind that ring

Behind your pink silhouette, young lust balcony

C'mon baby, just ride with me

C'mon baby, just ride with me

C'mon baby, just ride with me

We got two-thousand miles between here and home

They won't even know we're gone

I got mama's smile and my daddy's gun

You got your honest face and your liar's tongue

Until Armageddon takes me

It's just you and my baby

Running like the only sinners left

Loving like the only sinners left

Livin' like the only sinners left alive

Livin' on the outside

I got one shot to steal this world

If you wanna go with me you can be my girl

Here's a bullet for your thoughts and a penny for the train

Next time I'm here they'll be diggin' my grave

C'mon baby, just ride with me

C'mon baby, just ride with me

We got two-thousand miles between here and home

They won't even know we're gone

I got mama's smile and my daddy's gun

You got your honest face and your liar's tongue

Until Armageddon takes me

It's just you and my baby

Running like the only sinners left

Loving like the only sinners left

Livin' like the only sinners left alive

Livin' on the outside

Livin' on the outside (hey hey hey)

Livin' on the outside (oh, yeah yeah, livin')

Livin' on the outside (yeah yeah yeah yeah, ooh)

Livin' on the outside (oh yeah, oh yeah, oh hey)

Well, if I gotta go, I'm going in style

You're gonna find me running down that Calvary mile

A beggar's son on the potter's tree

C'mon, baby just ride with me

C'mon, baby just ride with me

C'mon, baby just ride with me

Come on!

Come on!

We got two-thousand miles between here and home

They won't even know we're gone

I got my mama's smile and my daddy's gun

Bring your honest face and your liar's tongue

Until Armageddon takes me

It's just you and my baby

Runnin' like the only sinners left

Livin' like the only sinners left

Lovin' like the only sinners left alive

Livin' on the outside....
