Sometimes.....Sometimes.....
Good luck comes in threes
Sometimes.....Sometimes.....
You see the Sun through the trees
Old times.....In your mind.....
Turn like a steering wheel
Ninety nine.....Lonely miles.....
'Til you can strike your deal
Money dreams.....Money dreams.....
Oh, let your body sleep
Sunny schemes.....An' Darlene.....
That California beach
Tell me why.....Tell me why.....
All motorcycle cops wanna die
Looking good.....Looking fine.....
The Sun is high in the sky
When it's a long way back to your laundromat
Got no protection from the city block code
With the law 'n order north of the border
Motor gypsies keep on runnin' down the road
Hit and run.....Hit and run.....
Got speeding tickets to the Sun
You need a gun.....From where I come.....
In shaking city on the run
City rats.....City rats.....
No more chewing at my clothes
Baseball bats.....An' silk hats.....
Manhattan overload
When it's a long way back to your laundromat
And your holy pool hall by the tracks
With the law 'n order north of the border
Wise guys keep on runnin' and that's the facts
In my time.....In my time.....
I drank a lake of hobo wine
Now that I'm.....In my prime.....
And jukeboxes don't run on dimes
How far I roam.....How far I roam.....
I never get no nearer home
Now say to me.....Say to me.....
The road ain't what it used to be
When it's a long way back to your laundromat
And your holy poolhall by the tracks
With the law 'n order north of the border
The wise guys keep on runnin' that's the facts
When it's a long way back to your laundromat
Got no protection from the city block code
With the law 'n order north of the border
Motor gypsies keep on runnin' way down the road
Hats of silk.....Hats of silk.....
Charlie Parker drinks whisky and milk
All the time.....Rain or shine.....
This Elmore dude is losing his mind
Fifty grand.....Fifty grand.....
That's fifty grand layin' in your hand
Ain't no man.....In the land.....
Gets up and walks from fifty grand
His brother Al.....His brother Al.....
He ain't exactly Elmore's pal
He said to me.....Said to me.....
This road ain't what it used to be
Stop for gas.....Stop for gas.....
Head off to the stagecoach at the pass
Goldmine.....Goldmine.....
Cadillacs are rolling off the line
Elmore.....Elmore.....
Tell me what you're running for
What the hell.....Elmore.....
Don't you have a handle to your door?
In his time.....In his time.....
Elmore had a lake of hobo wine
Way to go.....Way to go.....
But where I'm goin' I don't know
Crazy dude.....Crazy dude.....
Got up and walked out on his group
No way to be.....Misunderstood.....
I bet you that he ain't no good
In my time.....In my time.....
I had a lake of hobo wine
Take it from me.....Take it from me.....
The road ain't what it used to be
I've been there.....I've been there.....
Standing at the top of the stair
When you're high.....Better say bye bye.....
'Cos stars are always falling from the sky
10,000 miles.....10,000 miles.....
I need a retread on my tyres
Really strayed.....Far and wide.....
'Til she gimme a place to hide
He's a fool.....He's a fool.....
Don't teach him nothing at his school
Something bugging.....Crazy cousin.....
Why can't the man be cool?
The way it is.....With this guy.....
Never seen him laugh or heard him cry
Who is he.....Don't ask me.....
I'm the guy who makes deliveries
He can't dance.....He can't sing.....
Won't get a girl a diamond ring
He ain't folks.....Way he smokes.....
And he ain't going where you think
Sometimes.....Sometimes.....
Good luck comes in threes
Sometimes.....Sometimes.....
You see the Sun through the trees
Old times.....In your mind.....
Turn like a steering wheel
Ninety nine.....Lonely miles.....
'Til you can strike your deal
Sometimes.....Sometimes.....（Mick&Joe录于1986年10月）
