Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Waiting by the side of the road

For day to break so we could go

Down into Los Angeles

With dirty hands and worn out knees

[Verse 2]

I keep crawling back to you

I keep crawling back to you

[Verse 3]

The ranger came with burning eyes

The chambermaid awoke surprised

Thought she'd seen the last of him

She shook her head and let him in

[Verse 4]

I keep crawling back to you

I keep crawling back to you

[Verse 5]

Hey, baby, there's something in your eyes

Tryna say to me

That I'm gonna be alright if I believe in you

It's all I wanna do

[Verse 6]

It was me and my sidekick

He was drunk and I was sick

We were caught up in a barroom fight

Till an Indian shot out the lights

[Verse 7]

I'm so tired of being tired

Sure as night will follow day

Most things I worry 'bout

Never happen anyway

[Verse 8]

I keep crawling back to you

I keep crawling back to you

[Verse 9]

I keep crawling back to you

I keep crawling back to you

I keep crawling back to you
