"Range Life" lyrics

"Range Life"

Okay, a one two, a one, two, three four

After the glow, the scene, the stage, the set
Talk becomes slow, but there's some things you'll never forget
Hey buddy, pay your tolls before you pay the rent
Over the turnstiles and out in the traffic
There's ways of living; It's the way I'm living
Right or wrong, I'd say it's wrong if I could guess but I wouldn't wanna let you be

Free life
Someday you'll settle down
I hope you'll settle down
I hope you'll settle down
Range life
I hope you'll settle down
And if you settle down
Come for a summer

Run from the pigs, the fuzz, the cops, the heat
Pass me your gloves, this crime is never complete
Snort a line, shoot it up, and it'll never make you feel free
Out on my skateboard, the night is just humming
And the gums smacks are the pulse I'll follow if my Walkman fades
You better repair your dues because I never wanna let you be

But don't worry, we're in no hurry
School's out, what did you expect?

I want a range life
Where I can settle down
If I could settle down
Well I would settle down
Range life
I wanna settle down
If I could settle down
Well I would settle down
