Speeding down a lullaby of how do we lie? Town to town as I look around and neglect to see the light Picking up passengers trying to kill some time Coast to coast, I want to make the most of this ride
All I want is for somebody to bring me through to the other side I'd like to thank you for your endeavor Even if it don't fly, we'll try
Sheila was a vagabond from out of state Now she sits alone I said wait You could be my protégé, my last hurrah Fifty fifty, we'll split the dope and move on
All I want is for somebody to bring me through to the other side Oh, in one career you can get so near Even if it don't fly, we'll try
This is how the west was won This is how we get things done We've been having so much fun This is how the west was won
Now she's at the catch me out on Bourbon street, singing and misbehaving for nobody Me I'm like a satellite with eyes of steel looking around for something to feel
All I want is for somebody to bring me through to the other side I'd like to thank you for your endeavor Even if it don't fly, we'll try
This is how the west was won This is how we get things done We've been having so much fun This is how the west was won
