[Verse 1]
She's a good girl, loves her mama
Loves Jesus and America too
She's a good girl, crazy 'bout Elvis
Loves horses and her boyfriend too
[Verse 2]
It's a long day livin' in Reseda
There's a freeway runnin' through the yard
And I'm a bad boy 'cause I don't even miss her
I'm a bad boy for breakin' her heart
[Chorus]
And I'm free
Free fallin'
Yeah, I'm free
Free fallin'
[Verse 3]
All the vampires walkin' through the valley
Move west down Ventura Boulevard
And all the bad boys are standing in the shadows
And the good girls are home with broken hearts
[Chorus]
And I'm free
I'm free fallin'
Yeah, I'm free
Free fallin'
[Post-Chorus]
(Free fallin', I'm-a free fallin', I'm-a)
(Free fallin', I'm-a free fallin', I'm-a)
[Bridge]
I wanna glide down over Mulholland
I wanna write her name in the sky
I'm gonna free fall out into nothin'
Gonna leave this world for a while
[Chorus]
Now I'm free (Free fallin', I'm-a free fallin', I'm-a)
Free fallin' (Free fallin', I'm-a free fallin', I'm-a)
Yeah, I'm free (Free fallin', I'm-a free fallin', I'm-a)
Free fallin' (Free fallin', I'm-a free fallin', I'm-a)
[Outro]
(Free fallin', I'm-a free fallin', I'm-a)
Yeah, I'm free
Free fallin'
Oh
(Free fallin', I'm-a free fallin', I'm-a)
Free fallin' (Free fallin', I'm-a free fallin', I'm-a)
I'm free (Free fallin', I'm-a free fallin', I'm-a)
Oh, free fallin' (Free fallin', I'm-a free fallin', I'm-a)
(Free fallin', I'm-a free fallin', I'm-a)
Free fallin' (Free fallin', I'm-a free fallin', I'm-a)
[Verse 1]
Well, I won't back down
No, I won't back down
You can stand me up at the gates of Hell
But I won't back down
No, I'll stand my ground
Won't be turned around
And I'll keep this world from draggin' me down
Gonna stand my ground
And I won't back down
[Chorus]
(I won't back down)
Hey, baby, there ain't no easy way out
(I won't back down)
Hey, I will stand my ground (Ooh)
And I won't back down
[Verse 2]
Well, I know what's right
I got just one life
In a world that keeps on pushin' me around
But I'll stand my ground
And I won't back down
[Chorus]
(I won't back down)
Hey, baby, there ain't no easy way out
(I won't back down)
Hey, I will stand my ground (Ooh, I won't back down)
And I won't back down
[Verse 1]
There was a girl I knew
She said she cared about me
She tried to make my world
The way she thought it should be
[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah, we were desperate then
To have each other to hold
[Chorus]
But love
Is a long, long road
Yeah, love
Is a long, long road
[Verse 2]
There were so many times
I would wake up at noon
Yeah, with my head spinning 'round
I would wait for the moon
[Pre-Chorus]
And give her one more chance
To try and save my soul
[Chorus]
But love
Is a long, long road
Yeah, love
Is a long, long road
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 3]
Yeah, it was hard to give up
Some things are hard to let go
Some things are never enough
I guess I only can hope
[Pre-Chorus]
For maybe one more chance
To try and save my soul
[Chorus]
But love
Is a long, long road
Yeah, love
Is a long, long road
[Outro]
Love
Is a long, long road
Yeah, love
Is a long, long road (Oh)
Oh, it's a long, long road
[Verse 1]
Before all of this ever went down
In another place, another town
[Chorus]
You were just a face in the crowd
You were just a face in the crowd
Out in the street, walking around
A face in the crowd
[Verse 2]
Out of a dream, out of the sky
Into my heart, into my life
[Chorus]
And you were just a face in the crowd
You were just a face in the crowd
Out in the street, thinking out loud
A face in the crowd
[Verse 2]
Out of a dream, out of the sky
Into my heart, into my life
[Chorus]
And you were just a face in the crowd
You were just a face in the crowd
Out in the street, walking around
A face in the crowd
[Outro]
A face in the crowd
A face in the crowd
A face in the crowd
[Verse 1]
It was a beautiful day, the sun beat down
I had the radio on, I was drivin'
Trees went by, me and Del were singin' little Runaway
I was flyin'
[Chorus]
Yeah, runnin' down a dream that never would come to me
Workin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads
Runnin' down a dream
[Verse 2]
I felt so good, like anything was possible
Hit cruise control and rubbed my eyes
The last three days the rain was unstoppable
It was always cold, no sunshine
[Chorus]
Yeah, runnin' down a dream that never would come to me
Workin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads
Runnin' down a dream
[Bridge]
I rolled on, the sky grew dark
I put the pedal down to make some time
There's something good waitin' down this road
I'm pickin' up whatever's mine
[Chorus]
I'm runnin' down a dream that never would've come to me
Workin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads
Runnin' down a dream
Yeah, I'm runnin' down a dream that never would've come to me
Workin' on a mystery, goin' wherever it leads
I'm runnin' down a dream
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 1]
I ain't ever gonna let you down
All you got to do is trust me
I would never make you some clown
Baby, why won't you trust me?
[Chorus 1]
You give up so easily
I don't know why you can't see
I'm depending on you
Don't let me down
I'm depending on you
[Verse 2]
Baby, if you can't change the world
Maybe you should just change yourself
You used to be such a sweet young girl
Why you wanna be someone else?
[Chorus 2]
You give up so easily
I don't know why you can't see
I'm depending on you
Is it too late now?
I'm depending on you
[Chorus 1]
You give up so easily
I don't know why you can't see
I'm depending on you
Don't let me down
I'm depending on you
[Outro]
Yeah, I'm depending on you
Is it too late now?
I'm depending on you
I'm depending on you
I'm depending on you
Is it too late now?
I'm depending on you
[Verse 1]
I used to live in a two-room apartment
Neighbors knocking on my wall
Times were hard, I don't wanna knock it
I don't miss it much at all
[Chorus]
Oh yeah, I'm alright
I just feel a little lonely tonight
I'm okay most of the time
I just feel a little lonely tonight
[Verse 2]
Well, I used to need your love so badly
Then I came to live with it
Lately I get a faraway feeling
And the whole thing starts again
[Chorus]
Oh yeah, I'm alright
I just feel a little lonely tonight
I'm okay most of the time
I just feel a little lonely tonight
[Instrumental bridge]
[Verse 1]
All down the street, they're standing in line
With white lipstick and one thing on their minds
Hey little freak with the lunch pail purse
Underneath the paint, you're just a little girl
[Chorus]
Dancin' at the Zombie Zoo
Dancin' at the Zombie Zoo
Painted in a corner and all you wanna do
Is dance down at the Zombie Zoo
[Verse 2]
Cute little dropout, how come you pack a rod?
Is your mother in a clinic? Has your father got no job?
Sometimes you're so impulsive, you shaved off all your hair
You look like Boris Karloff and you don't even care
[Chorus]
You're dancin' at the Zombie Zoo
Dancin' at the Zombie Zoo
Painted in a corner and all you wanna do
Is dance down at the Zombie Zoo
[Bridge]
She disappears at sunrise
I wonder where she goes until the night
Comes fallin' down again
You show up with your friends, half-alive
[Chorus]
Dancin' at the Zombie Zoo
Dancin' at the Zombie Zoo
[Verse 3]
Well, you can make a big impression or go through life unseen
You might wind up restricted and over seventeen
It's so hard to be careful, so easy to be led
Somewhere beyond the pavement, you'll find the living dead
[Chorus]
Dancin' at the Zombie Zoo
Dancin' at the Zombie Zoo
Painted in a corner and all she wants to do
Is dance down at the Zombie Zoo
[Bridge]
She disappears at sunrise
I don't know where she goes until the night
Comes fallin' down again
She shows up with her friends, half-alive
[Chorus]
Dancin' at the Zombie Zoo
Dancin' at the Zombie Zoo
Painted in a corner and all you want to do
Is dance down at the Zombie Zoo
Dance down at the Zombie Zoo
Get down at the Zombie Zoo
