Oh, there is a place where the wild men go,
|
When it's late at night and on the radio,
|
They're telling everybody, stay at home,
|
It's no time for you to be alone,
|
It is a place on the edge of town,
|
Just shining in a hell-fire light, (they're waiting,)
|
And if you're there, keep going on,
|
They're waiting deep inside, I'm telling you,
|
|
Don't look back, women in the red and black,
|
Don't look back, they're going to take your heart away,
|
I'm telling you don't look back, women in the red and black,
|
Don't look back, they're going to steal your heart away,
|
I should have known better;
|
|
Well Jimmy Pellin was a friend of mine,
|
But he went out there one too many times,
|
I saw him running down the railroad track,
|
And I tell you boys he ain't coming back,
|
The early morning is their favourite time,
|
To find somebody out on their own, (they're waiting,)
|
They're waving arms and flashing lights,
|
Standing out on the road, I'm telling you,
|
|
Don't look back, women in the red and black,
|
Don't look back, they're going to take your heart away,
|
I should have known better, I should have known better,
|
|
So if you're going to the edge of town,
|
Don't lose in a hell-fire light, (they're waiting,)
|
And if you're passing, keep going on,
|
They're waiting there tonight, I'm begging you,
|
|
Don't look back, don't look back,
|
I beg you don't look back,
|
Women in the red and black,
|
Don't look back, they're going to steal your heart away,
|
|
I should have known better - don't look back,
|
I should have known better - don't look back,
|
I should have known better - don't look back,
|
I should have known better - don't look back,
|
I should have known better.
