You're too vain - you're insane
You think the world'll stop turning
Just 'cause you ain't around
Blind eyes - your cheap lies
You got the whole band playing
But you don't hear the sound
Your venom pen, will never poison me
I won't be sticking round that long
Corina, what's this talk of glory
Between the sheets in halls of fame
Corina, just a hard luck story
Bratpack fever running through your brain
Your fast cars - your rock stars
You were seen at the party
But you weren't even there
False name - same game
Somebody's minding your business
But you don't even care
You think it's all some kind of chorus ride
You think someone's keeping the score
Mister Majestic, fires a gun
Mister Majestic, he's got a lie on his tongue
You can't help but listen, he got a way with words
Don't ask useless questions, unless you want to leave this world
Madam Odessa carries a knife
Across to the jailhouse in her pretty style
She ain't looking for business, she got a way with words
She's gonna take the man for what he done to her
This was how the West was won - lawless and unruly
Now I guess what's done is done
He took her old man in cold blood
He hit the deck with that sickening thud
Life was cheap, that's what we always heard about
It was over something stupid, they could have talked it out
This was how the West was won - lawless and unruly
Now I guess what's done is done
Billy thought that Billy was right
Where is the killer, nobody knows
He's waiting in the dark saloon for night to close
He tried to cheat at the gambling table
A stranger pulls and fires
As he falls he sees the stranger is madam in disguise
Tryin' to make it back to my old home town
Been driving since the break of dawn
Got a feeling like a fever, burning in my brain
But when I feel her, that'll be all gone
Pacific highway - getting nearer now
And I feel like the dream is coming true
Pacific highway - getting closer now
Don't need directions
To find my way back to you
Take another turning on the old creek road
I'm making sure I don't get lost
Hoping to hell my taco's reading right
Get ahead no matter what the cost
Try to take it easy on the old home stretch
City limits come into sight
Getting ready for my Betty - God how I missed that girl
Now we'll be rock-n-rollin' through the night
