DON'T LOOK BACK

Live 24 Mar 1977 version

One, two, three, four!

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

Making night tracks through the blazing rain
Blowing pistons, working the fast lane
White line burning, pocket full of cash
Angel writes her name in lipstick on my dash
There's nothing to lose, it's a setup, the deck's stacked
Put your foot to the floor and darling don't look back

We held it in our hearts in the lonely rain
We made it in the heart of a hurricane
We tore it apart and put it together again
Whoa whoa whoa, whoa whoa whoa, whoa whoa whoa

Won't you believe in love for me
We're gonna take ourselves tonight in the sea
We'll move in with the city in the dark
You gotta walk it, talk it in your heart
There's nothing to lose, it's a setup, the deck's stacked
Put your foot to the floor and darling
Blow off the doors darling
Put your foot to the floor and darling don't look back

Don't look back
Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa
Don't look back
Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa
Don't look back
Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa
Don't look back
Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa

??? don't look back
