I once knew a man and everytime that he spoke He took two steps back so nothin' of him could show And if you kept talkin', you'd further that fool's retreat to a faint memory that no living soul could see.....come on. He once met a blind man who liked the sound of his own voice He never stopped talking leavin' that man no choice He took one step back followed by a thousand more til he was long long gone from the town where he was born...oh no. Straight tracks don't change they don't turn Straight tracks know fate 'cause they don't learn And they won't stop until shadows burn He fell back on a lover sleepin undercover of night She said as long your down here, you may as well stay the night He said I've never known of lovin', I never really saw the point to be a half dead sucker on the back of some dirty old coin...oh no.. Straight tracks don't change they don't turn Straight tracks know fate 'cause they don't learn And they won't stop until shadows burn Songtexte She said what's a matter man, has your shadow got you on the run? Shadows only live in the beauty of the noontime sun. He said my sun burned out many many years ago. She said well this ain't gonna hurt, I promise you we'll take it slow. Straight tracks don't change they don't turn Straight tracks know fate 'cause they don't learn And they won't stop until shadows burn until shadows burn until shadows burn until shadows burn Aus Songtexte Mania
