Meat Loaf

Lyrics Living on the outside Meat Loaf

 452

Living on the outside


I've got steel on my fingers, granite on my breath
A bottle in one ear and a spike in my chest
A nickel in my boot and my finger in a damn
I hang out with a bunch of losers I call my friends, and we sing

oooh
oooh
oooh
oooh

But I'm headin' out today, I'm goin' down Elijah's way
Spinnin' wheels on fire, with my speed needle between my jeans
So darlin', show my what you're hiding behind that ring
Behind your pink silhouette, young lust balcony

C'mon baby, just ride with me
C'mon baby, just ride with me
C'mon baby, just ride with me

We got two-thousand miles between here and home
They won't even know we're gone
I got mama's smile and my daddy's gun
You got your honest face and your liar's tongue

Until Armageddon takes me
It's just you and my baby
Running like the only sinners left
Loving like the only sinners left
Livin' like the only sinners left alive

Livin' on the outside

I got one shot to steal this world
If you wanna go with me you can be my girl
Here's a bullet for your thoughts and a penny for the train
Next time I'm here they'll be diggin' my grave

C'mon baby, just ride with me
C'mon baby, just ride with me

We got two-thousand miles between here and home
They won't even know we're gone
I got mama's smile and my daddy's gun
You got your honest face and your liar's tongue

Until Armageddon takes me
It's just you and my baby
Running like the only sinners left
Loving like the only sinners left
Livin' like the only sinners left alive

Livin' on the outside

Livin' on the outside (hey hey hey)
Livin' on the outside (oh, yeah yeah, livin')
Livin' on the outside (yeah yeah yeah yeah, ooh)
Livin' on the outside (oh yeah, oh yeah, oh hey)

Well, if I gotta go, I'm going in style
You're gonna find me running down that Calvary mile
A beggar's son on the potter's tree

C'mon, baby just ride with me
C'mon, baby just ride with me
C'mon, baby just ride with me

Come on!
Come on!

We got two-thousand miles between here and home
They won't even know we're gone
I got my mama's smile and my daddy's gun
Bring your honest face and your liar's tongue

Until Armageddon takes me
It's just you and my baby
Runnin' like the only sinners left
Livin' like the only sinners left
Lovin' like the only sinners left alive

Livin' on the outside...

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
