You took me out of the city
My hands cracked blue, feeling gritty
And even this long haired
Hippie couldn't lie
He cried, "I'm not on my own"

Late night, get me into trouble
Breaking in to skinny dip at the Hair Pool
And even this long haired
Hippie couldn't lie
He cried, "What am I to do? Am I the fool?"
I put my head down, politics aside
We're so taboo what is love? What is love?
It's love that I wanted with you

But I'm never one to say it's meant to be
I don't believe in fate anyway

Evеn when we're dеad, you're still mine
A company man they said, all the time
This world's a powder keg and
Everybody's gonna burn alive
Forever you and I

Small town, try to keep a secret
Soon enough, everybody's gonna hear it
"Lies" they'll cry, one side
Is it enough to just survive?

I don't know
But I'll work my fingers to the
Bone to make it alright
It's do-or-die, it's you and I
A gambler losing his high
But I'm never one to pray and as for God
I hope they'll feel the same, by and by

And even when we're dead, you're still mine
A company man they said, all the time
This world's a powder keg and
Everybody's gonna burn alive
Forever you and I

You took me out of the city
My hands cracked blue, feeling gritty
And even this long haired
Hippie couldn't lie
He cried, "I'm not on my own"
