Otherside Of The Bottle

(album: Runaway - 2011)

Ooh, red moon rising, dizzy and tired
You're straight as an arrow and completely wired
Lord, I've been calling, ain't got no answer
Nobody on these tracks but the gandy dancer
Don't know about it, don't know about the land
But I know all these back alleys like the back of my hand

Well, tell me what you want, I'll go right out and get it
Tell me what you need, and I'll deliver in a minute
I know my way around, been living underground
I might be borrowed, but I ain't bound
Creeping these streets and collect another shotfull
Baby won't you join me on that other side of the bottle

It was that neon moon peeking through your window slats
You lie awake and you can hear the tracks
Your eyes ain't fit for sleeping and time ain't fit for keeping
You're feeling hungry, well it's half past midnight creeping
Cruising these streets and collect another shotfull
Baby I've been living on that other side of the bottle

Well there's steam in the gutter, it's hotter than hell
You got that glint in your eye, you can't break the spell
I see you crying, you're looking for a pass
Fishing for that diamond in the bottom of a glass
Creeping these streets and collect another shotfull
Baby won't you join me on the other side of the bottle Oh, oh

You're out there, pulling tricks and treats
Baby, and you can't hide it, I said you can feel the heat, solo

I, I put the moon in my pocket, shot the sun out of the sky
Living for the nighttime, rub the sleep out of our eyes
I said, no rest for the weary, no love for the leery
I keep on the move, if you can, keep up near me
Creeping these streets and collect another shotfull
Baby won't you join me on the other side of the bottle, oh
I've been living on the other side of the bottle
