i met her in a shooting gallery speeding like a goose back when both of us were used to making strangers she shook me down for all i had and every way but loose but i was still too juiced to feel the danger and anyway now anymore you don t know which is worse falling out of love or left behind i just seen the sweetest dreaming wind up like a curse maybe one too many times chorus but she said i don t want you baby i just want someone to hold me i got too much rock and roll to be a wife i can t live without the lightning and i m scared of growing older so i m bound to keep on running for my life i ve seen her roll herself into a tight and tiny ball like a belly gunner crouching in a turret i said i recognize the symptoms girl i got the same disease i just haven t got a clue to how to cure it and any way now any more you don t know who to trust cause love is wild as lust and just as blind anyone who s ever gonna love me better fool me first and baby maybe i been one too many times chorus but she said i don t want you baby i just want someone to hold me i got too much rock and roll to be a wife i can t live without the lightning and i m scared of growing older so i m bound to keep on running for my life
