Come on and listen to my tale
|
It's a strange and sorry tale
|
That's gonna rock you
|
About a man, the drifting kind
|
Let the story now unwind
|
It's gonna shock you
|
|
Some people said he was a ghost
|
Wouldn't wanna be his host
|
Or just to meet him
|
And if he ever came their way
|
They'd be sticks and stones, I'd say
|
That would grieve him
|
|
He was a Steppenwolf, a lost and lonely one
|
He was a Steppenwolf, forever on the run
|
He was a Steppenwolf, with a forgotten past
|
He was a Steppenwolf, who found a love at last
|
He was a Steppenwolf
|
|
The girl he met was out-of-sight
|
Though she walked the streets at night
|
He didn't mind it
|
She seemed as happy as a song
|
And if anything was wrong
|
He didn't find it
|
|
They used to laugh and dance and drink
|
And not ever did he think of a payday
|
No matter where they ever were
|
Every day he spent with her was a hey-day
|
|
He was a Steppenwolf, and not a handsome man
|
He was a Steppenwolf, who didn't know her plan
|
He was a Steppenwolf, not very bright at all
|
He was a Steppenwolf, just riding for a fall
|
He was a Steppenwolf
|
|
One day she said "It's time you knew
|
That I started up with you
|
For just one reason
|
You're gonna do just what I want
|
'cause there's something that I want
|
And I ain't teasing
|
My life is empty all around
|
Nothing that I ever found
|
Would fulfill me
|
So for a while I'll be with you
|
When I say that we're through
|
You must kill me!"
|
|
He was a Steppenwolf, He cried "It isn't fair"
|
He was a Steppenwolf, "You know how much I care"
|
He was a Steppenwolf, She said "This is the deal"
|
He was a Steppenwolf, He saw this was for real
|
He was a Steppenwolf
|
|
He was a Steppenwolf, they spent a long last night
|
He was a Steppenwolf, and with a smile she died
|
He was a Steppenwolf, a lost and lonely one
|
He was a Steppenwolf, forever on the run
|
He was a Steppenwolf
|
