"Out Of The Badlands" lyrics

"Out Of The Badlands"

Don't tell your mama
Don't tell your daddy
Baby, let's just go
The only escaping
The only salvation
Is a long dark road
You're bitin' your lip girl
You're tight as a fist girl
We'll be all right
Once we're over the hot sand
Out of the badlands
Into the night

Ooh ooh ooh

Don't trust the teachers
Don't trust the preachers
That the world is round
We'll find out for ourselves
Once we break past the shell
On the edge of this town
I got some twenties and tens
In a Maxwell House can
With the lid on tight
To get us over the hot sand
Out of the badlands
Into the night

Oh, there's a billion little stars
Oh, let's pick out which one is ours
Oh, girl, I need you by my side
To get over the hot sand
Out of the badlands
Into the night

Baby you better
Bring jeans and a sweater
If the air gets cold
'Cause we've been dreaming 'bout
Breaking out, running away
Since seven years old
And it won't be as hard
Once the fence in your yard
Disappears out of sight
And we're over the hot sand
Out of the badlands
Into the night

Oh, there's a billion little stars
Oh, let's pick out which one is ours
Oh, girl, I need you by my side
To get over the hot sand
Out of the badlands
Into the night
To get over the hot sand
Out of the badlands
Into the night

Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh
