Middle of the Road

Jack Hardy

[Verse 1]
Fortunes melt the same as ice
Troubles curse the crying eyes
Feelings change and break with the brand new day
And a-faster than a prairie fire
Moonlit nights of hot desire
Winter is just a season gone astray

[Verse 2]
And the gang is on the TV show
They didn't know which way to go
'Cause the bossman and the hitman are the same
And the feeling of the family is gone
And who is gonna say it's wrong
When they don't even know if the victim's got a name?

[Chorus]
Spider starts to spin his web
Causing you to lose your head
Wondering exactly where to go
Ah, there are plenty of ways to overrule
If you just recall the golden rule
You cannot drive down a middle of the road

[Verse 3]
Oh, it ain't so bad being so small
Watching all the heroes fall
Samson's just a freak who lost his hair
And of all the diseases lovers cure
Shame is the worst he must endure
And Don Juan only wants his share

[Verse 4]
And the newspapers tell the tale
They say that story is not for sale
Except for the lawyers' paid advice
And the devil claims it just ain't fair
Fire has kept him unaware
That anyone can walk on water as cold as ice

[Chorus]
Spider starts to spin his web
Causing you to lose your head
Wondering exactly where to go
Ah, there are plenty of ways to overrule
If you just recall the golden rule
You cannot drive down a middle of the road

[Harmonica Solo]

[Verse 5]
Ah, there just ain't no more home
Out where the buffalos roam
The sunset's far too gray to hold its own
And it ain't that I hate your color TV
Your Cadillac or your wife to be
It just must be awfully hard to live alone

[Verse 6]
And the news is on the radio
They still don't know which way to go
Although they tell you exactly where it's at
And a man complains that he's too fat
A woman claims she lost her cat
How I wish I could have troubles like that

[Chorus]
Spider starts to spin his web
Causing you to lose your head
Wondering exactly where to go
Ah, there are plenty of ways to overrule
If you just recall the golden rule
You cannot drive down the middle of the road
