Getting crazy on the waltzers
but it's the life
that I choose yeah
Sing about the sixblade
sing about the switchback
and a torture tattoo
And I been riding on a ghost
train where the cars
they scream and slam
And I don't know where
I'll be tonight but
I'll always tell you
where I am
In a screaming ring of faces
I seen her standing
in the light
She had a ticket for the races
yeah just like me she was
a victim of the night
I put my hand upon the lever
said let it rock
and let it roll
I had a one arm bandit fever
there was an arrow
through my heart and my soul
And the big wheel
keep on turning
neon burning up above
And I'm just high on the world
Come on and take a low ride
with me girl
On the tunnel of love
yeah love
It's just a danger
and when you're riding
at your own risk
She said you are
the perfect stranger
she said baby
just keep it like this
It's just a cakewalk twisting
baby step right up and say
Hey mister give me two
give me two now
'cause any two can play
And the big wheel keep
on turning
neon burning up above
And I'm just high on the world
Come on and take a low ride
with me girl
On the tunnel of love
oh oooh love
Well it's been money for
muscle on a another whirligig
Money for muscle
and another girl I dig
Another hustle just to
just to make it big
And rockaway rockaway
oooh rockaway rockaway
And girl it looks so pretty
to me like it always did
Oh Like the Spanish City
to me when we were kids
Hey girl it looks so pretty
to me like it always did
Oh Like the Spanish City
to me when we were kids
She took off a silver locket
she said remember me by this
She put her hand in my pocket
I got a keepsake and a kiss
And in the roar of dust
and diesel I stood
and watched her walk away
I could have caught up
with her easy enough
but something must have
made me stay
And the big wheel
keep on turning
neon burning up above
And I'm just high
on this world
Come on and take a low
ride with me girl
On the tunnel of love
yeah love love
On the tunnel of love
oooh love love
And now I'm searching through
these carousels
and the carnival arcades
Searching every where
from steeplechase to palisades
In any shooting gallery
where promises are made
To rockaway rockaway
rockaway rockaway
From Cullercoats and Whitley
Bay out to rockaway
And girl it looks so pretty
to me like it always did
Like the Spanish City
to me when we were kids
Girl it looks so pretty
to me like it always did
Like the Spanish City
to me when we were kids
