Rancid - Memphis lyrics

I've lived my whole life, made mistakes from the get-go Street kid from the start, right, no regrets though I do what I want, yeah, 'cuz I said so No sleep for the wicked, right? No, bed no Rollin' with the punk rockers, I ain't lyin' Fake guns, fake bands, fake punk, I ain't buyin' Hit the road, all I know, rock and roll ain't dyin' About fifteen deep we hit the streets low ridin' By the time we made it to New Orleans It must have been half past three By the time we made it to Memphis we were crazy Tonight, you are our blanket and you're gonna keep us warm Tonight, protect us from the storm He was back, causin' troubled time's they're a comin' 'round Oh no, let me go to another round Tuesday night is when the storm's gonna settle down Had a glance, circumstance, don't cause, trouble bound She's the one, all alone, I come lookin' Smoke and mirrors as I watch, aw, that girl was trippin' It's no fun, lost again, to have your heart broken Greed is from a world that is built on hustlin' By the time we made it to New Orleans It must have been half past three By the time we made it to Memphis we were crazy Tonight, you are our blanket and you're gonna keep us warm Tonight, protect us from the storm The breaks were fallin' when they had failed Every road can lead ya straight down to f**in' hell Rain stopped fallin' when they had failed Yeah, every road can take ya straight down to hell Doin' nothin' here, everyone straight trippin' Happy at times, are gone, past starts slippin' This will be enough to keep me on the road livin' Good every night, in a different city I'll be sleepin' Let me know, here we go, met a girl named Lola Is she here? Is she there? Drinkin' Jack and Cola She says, "Tim, where ya been? I got somethin' to show ya" Lola fired off her clothes and started rock and rollin' By the time we made it to New Orleans It must have been half past three By the time we made it to Memphis we were crazy Tonight, you are our blanket and you're gonna keep us warm Tonight, protect us from the storm
