Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Waiting by the side of the road
For day to break so we could go
Down into Los Angeles
With greasy hands and worn out knees
[Verse 2]
The ranger came with burning eyes
The chambermaid awoke surprised
Thought she'd seen the last of him
She shook her head and let him in
[Verse 3]
I keep crawling back to you
I keep crawling back to you
[Verse 4]
It was me and my sidekick
He was drunk, I was sick
Caught up in a barroom fight
Till an Indian shot out the lights
[Verse 5]
We escaped to Birmingham
A Uhaul and a five piece band
Stayed behind the Trojan horse
Things got bad, then got worse
[Verse 6]
I keep coming back to you
I keep crawling back to you
[Verse 7]
Hey baby, there's something in your eyes
Tryin' to say to me
That I will be alright 'cause I believe in you
It's all I want to do
[Verse 8]
I'm so tired of being tired
Sure as night will follow day
Most things I worry about
Never happen anyway
She'd hold him as she'd hold a child
Tembling, her eyes were wild
We'll fight this thing, we'll fight to win
Should it raise its head, we'll fight again
[Verse 9]
I keep crawling back to you
I keep coming back to you
I keep crawling back to you
I keep coming back to you
