On and On Lyrics
Making my way through the darkness.
Drive til I see the morning light.
Engine humming way down low
reminds me of the sweet, soft southern night.
Desert roads are straight and narrow,
but they can't help crooked souls.
Up above me flies a wild sparrow.
If I had wings, I'd fly on home.
On and on is the only way I can go.
Every time I look back, your shadow's got a knife to my throat.
All I got is this old white line stretching down the road.
On and on is the only way I can go.
Pulled into a rest stop by the side of the road.
The waitress is creeped out, I see,
because I've been staring at her for way too long.
Because she looks like you to me.
And it stings like a big old bee,
when I look back in the mirror.
This son of a bitch I'm staring at
left you for grasses greener.
Making my way to Kansas City.
Met a dancer, got a beer.
Told her I was running, trying to find God,
when she asked why I was here.
Said, "What little succubus stole your heart?"
I stood up and left there because I am the devil.
Drive til I see the morning light.
Engine humming way down low
reminds me of the sweet, soft southern night.
but they can't help crooked souls.
Up above me flies a wild sparrow.
If I had wings, I'd fly on home.
Every time I look back, your shadow's got a knife to my throat.
All I got is this old white line stretching down the road.
On and on is the only way I can go.
The waitress is creeped out, I see,
because I've been staring at her for way too long.
Because she looks like you to me.
when I look back in the mirror.
This son of a bitch I'm staring at
left you for grasses greener.
Met a dancer, got a beer.
Told her I was running, trying to find God,
when she asked why I was here.
Said, "What little succubus stole your heart?"
I stood up and left there because I am the devil.
