[Intro] A [Chorus]
AI'm a-high steppin', high bettin' Love givin', I'm a-love gettin' I'm a stranger, I love stretchin' out my wDheels EOvernightin' on the desert strip
Makin' time and losin' grip
Drivin' circles in the canyons of my mAind
[Verse 1]
IA'm an outsider lookin' in I got a perfect square for a circle of friends It's the four of us against the rest of yDou EBut really I am all alone
I'd sell 'em out to save my own
I told them that but they don't buy the truAth
[Chorus]
AI'm a-high steppin', high bettin' Love givin', I'm a-love gettin' I'm a stranger, I love stretchin' out my whDeels EOvernightin' on the desert strip
Makin' time and losin' grip
Drivin' circles in the canyons of my mAind
[Interlude]

N.C.

Well it's warfare out there, folks You're either working for success
Or to be rich or, God help us, famous

N.C.

Or you're working against the clock just to stay afloat Got your nose all scraped up from the grindstone
You're digging for diamonds and only finding rhinestones

N.C.

Meanwhile it's August and the tax man has never heard of summer vacation You're either working on yourself or you're lookin' after babies
Takin' care of your old man or your old lady

N.C.

And the direct line to the hospital just says "Leave a message" See, you can only live one day at a time
Only drive one hot rod at a time

N.C.

Only say one word at a time And only think one thought at a time
And every soul is alone when the day becomes night

N.C.

And there in the dark if you can try to see the light In the most pitch black shape of the loneliest shadow
Well then you ought to sleep well

N.C.

'Cause there's hope for sure Well I don't know about all that being true but
I do know this [Verse 2]
DThe best beggars are cAhoosers DThe best winners are lAosers DThe best lovers aEin't never been loAved DAnd first place ain't eAasy DThe hard part is bAelieving DThe very last word is lEove
[Chorus]
AI'm a-high steppin', high bettin' Love givin', I'm a-love gettin' I'm a stranger, I love stretchin' out my whDeels EOvernightin' on the desert strip
Makin' time and losin' grip
Drivin' circles in the canyons of my mAind
