DON'T LOOK BACK^©

Live 13 Mar 1977 version

One, two, three, four!

Cold rain running down the front of my shirt
I'm flat on my back, wheels in the dirt
Angel makes her face up on Baker Street
She's straddling the shifter in my front seat
There's nothing we can do, it's a setup, the deck is stacked
Put your foot to the floor and darling don't look back

Making night tracks through blazing rain
Blowing pistons, working the fast lane
??? up by the dynamo
Pushing daddy's car as fast as she would go
Whoa-whoa whoa-whoa, hey-yeah the deck is stacked
Put your foot to the floor and darling don't look back

Someday I wanna hold you
Someday I wanna hold you
Someday I wanna make you mine-hey-hey-hey
Baby back

Well the line is burning, pocket's full of cash
Angel writes her name on my dash
??? in my heart
We're moving in the city, in the dark
Whoa-whoa whoa-whoa, yeah-yeah ???
Let's even the score now darling
Blow off the doors now darling
Put your foot to the floor and darling don't look back
Don't look back
Don't look back
Don't look back
Don't look back
Don't look back
Yeah!
Don't look back
