Well, show me the way
To the next whiskey bar
Oh, don't ask why
Oh, don't ask why


Show me the way
To the next whiskey bar
Oh, don't ask why
Oh, don't ask why


For if we don't find
The next whiskey bar
I tell you we must die
I tell you we must die
I tell you, I tell you
I tell you we must die

Why don't you tell me, someone is loving you
Cause you're my girl, some say it's no longer true
You're seeing some slick continental dude
I'm begging you, please


Don't talk to strangers, baby don't you talk
Don't talk to strangers, you know he'll only use you up

Are we really happy here
With this lonely game we play?
Looking for words to say
Searching but not finding understanding anywhere
We're lost in a masquerade

Both afraid to say we're just too far away
From being close together from the start
We tried to talk it over but the words got in the way
We're lost inside this lonely game we play

So far away
Doesn't anybody stay in one place anymore?
It would be so fine to see your face at my door
Doesn't help to know you're just time away


Long ago I reached for you and there you stood
Holding you again could only do me good
How I wish I could, but you're so far away

Well, you can't have that, but if you're an american citizen you are entitled to:


 ...,

A foolproof plan and an airtight alibi,
Real simulated indian jewelry,
A gucci shoetree,
A year's supply of antibiotics,
A personally autographed picture of randy mantooth
And bob dylan's new unlisted phone number,
A beautifully restored 3rd reich swizzle stick,
Rosemary's baby,
A dream date in kneepads with paul williams,
A new matador,
A new mastadon,
A maverick,
A mustang,
A montego,
A merc montclair,
A mark iv,
A meteor,
A mercedes,
An mg,
Or a malibu,
A mort moriarty,
A maserati,
A mac truck,
A mazda,
A new monza,
Or a moped,
A winnebago--hell, a herd of winnebago's we're giving 'em away,
Or how about a mcculloch chainsaw,
A las vegas wedding,
A mexican divorce,
A solid gold kama sutra coffee pot,
Or a baby's arm holding an apple?

Mm-bah-dah
Dum-dum-bah-beh
Doo-ba-dum-ba-beh-beh

Pressure
Pushing down on me
Pushing down on you, no man ask for
Under pressure
That burns a building down
Splits A family in two
Puts people on streets

Um-ba-ba-beh
Um-ba-ba-beh
Dee-day-da
E-day-da, that's okay

It's the terror of knowing what this world is about
Watching some good friends screaming
"Let me out"
Tomorrow, gets me higher
Pressure on people
People on streets

Dey-dey-dey-mm-hm
Da-da-da-ba-ba
Okay

We're gonna break out the hats and hooters
When Josie comes home
We're gonna rev up the motor scooters
When Josie comes home to stay
We're gonna park in the street
Sleep on the beach and make it
Throw down the jam till the girls say when
Lay down the law and break it
When Josie comes home

Holly came from Miami, F.L.A.
Hitch-hiked her way across the U.S.A.
Plucked her eyebrows on the way
Shaved her legs and then he was a she


She says, "Hey, babe
Take a walk on the wild side"
Said, "Hey, honey
Take a walk on the wild side"

So I took a big chance at the high school dance
With a missy who was ready to play
Wasn't me she was foolin'
'Cause she knew what she was doin'
And I know love is here to stay
When she told me to

Walk this way, walk this way
Walk this way, walk this way
Walk this way, walk this way
Walk this way, walk this way
Ah, just give me a kiss

There used to be a greying tower alone on the sea
And you became the light on the dark side of me
Love remained a drug that's the high and not the pill

[Pre-Chorus]
But did you know that when it snows
My eyes become large and
The light that you shine can't be seen?

[Chorus]
Baby, I compare you to a kiss from a rose on the grey
Ooh, the more I get of you, stranger it feels, yeah
And now that your rose is in bloom
A light hits the gloom on the grey
