Seventeen, a nature's queen
You know what I mean Twenty-one, a long one You can see the numbers run Now you look so peaceful Lyin' there asleep With the wings of God above you Before the spirits meet Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom Shadow earth is closin' in Above the lamps in your street Lucifer goes walkin' Down for you to meet Minutes pass so slowly by The hands on your clock Heavens don't just open You can knock Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom With the darkness closin' in Will the light reveal your soul? Just one sweet kiss On your clay cold lips A long sleep you'll never know Where do we go, where do we go? Where do we go from here? Seventeen, a nature's queen You know what I mean Twenty-one, a long one You can see the numbers run Now you look so peaceful Lyin' there asleep With the wings of God above you Before the spirits meet Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom Rock bottom, rock bottom, rock bottom |

Well, I'm struttin' up and down
Tryin' to get my face in town Wonderin' the hang where To turn each time around Look in your mirror just to see my face Two way time, baby, it's no disgrace Oh my, how the times have changed Oh my, how the times have changed Ladies used to dancin' but I move for real Lookin' for reaction, something you can feel When ya dance, I move and they look me in the eye Two way time, baby, it's no lie Oh my, how the times have changed Oh my, how the times have changed Oh my, how the times have changed Oh my, how the times have changed Oh my, how the times have changed Oh my, how the times have changed |

*Cold wide sweet highway the place where we'd all go
Went out like a razor sharp and we'd all let it roll Let it roll Let it roll, let it go Let it roll **She'd skid up, and we really let it down Laying it out, let it roll When these wheels get rolling, let them roll right over you The time will be sound and I'll always put it through Let it roll, let it roll Let it roll **Repeat *Repeat **Repeat |

Was a fast tough woman
Loved to play the clown You won't do nothing about it Break a good boy's resistance down *Know she's got a pistol Laid it down on me She said shoot, shoot, shoot it boy You gotta shoot it for me Convinced me that she was worth it Never knew I was her kill And two 45's would do the trick And pay the bills *Repeat **I've really got to get a fast ride out of here Got to get a fast ride out of here Got to get a fast ride out of here Got to get a fast ride out of here now Holding out in my hotel room Police they finally come Had her as the prosecution And my prints upon the gun *Repeat **Repeat |
