Got to be a Better Way Home Sözleri

(S. Van Zandt)

Baby just believe me don't try to read me

I've got to catch the 5:05

I've got a ragged hungry band full of stone survivors

We're out here tryin' to keep it alive

No more favors fuckin' strangers say I owe

Don't care about your problems baby all I want to know

How am I gonna get it

How am I gonna get it

How am I gonna get it tonight?

I work hard enough

I'm tired of smiling at liars

I never said I'd try to set the world on fire

Leave me alone

Got to find a better way home

I do it all in an hour

Could you talk a little louder

I don't open my eyes until midnight

They're screamin' to please me, got to make it look easy

'Cause I'm fighting for my life in the spotlight

I'm dancin' in my corner but the bell won't ring

I've got no time to argue, baby, but tell me one thing

How am I gonna get it

How am I gonna get it

How am I gonna get it tonight?

I work hard enough

Tired of smiling at liars

I never said I'd try to set the world on fire

Leave me alone

Got to find a better way home

I hear the motor revvin' baby, I've got to go

But just before I leave there's one thing I've got to know

How am I gonna get it

How am I gonna get it

How am I gonna get it tonight?

I work hard enough

Tired of smiling at liars

I never said I'd try to set the world on fire

Leave me alone

Got to find a better way home

Comin' home, baby

Comin' home, baby

Comin' home, baby

Comin' home, baby
