Getting crazy on the waltzer but it´s the life that I choose
Yeah,sing about the sixblade, sing about the switchblade
And a torture tatoo
And I been riding on a ghost train
Where the cars they scream and slam
And I don´t know where I´ll be tonite
But I´d always tell you where I am

In the screaming ring of faces
I seen her standing in the light
She had a ticket for the races, yeah
Just like me she was a victim of the night
I put my hand upon the lever
Said, ´let it rock and let it roll´
I had the one arm bandit fever
There was an arrow through my heart and my soul

And the big wheel keep on turning (Repeats)
Neon burning up above
And I´m just high on the world
Come on an take a low ride with me girl
On the tunnel of love, yeah, love

It´s just the danger (danger) a when you´re riding at your own risk
She said ´you are the perfect stranger´
She said ´baby let´s keep it like this´
It´s just a cakewalk, twisting baby step right up and say
´Hey mister give me two give me two now cause any two can play´

Repeat (2)

Well it´s been money for muscle on a another whirligig
Money for muscle an a another girl I dig
Another hustle just ta, just to make it big
And rockaway, rockaway
Oh rockaway, rockaway

And girl it looks so pretty to me
Like it always did
Oh like the Spanish City to me when a we were kids
Yeah, girl it looks so pretty to me
Just like it always did
Oh like the Spanish City to me when a we were kids

(Instrumental)
Oh, Aw.....check it out

She took off her silver locket
She said ´remember me by this´
She put her hand in my pocket
I got a keepsake and a kiss
And in the roar of dust and diesel
I stood I watched her walk away
I could have caught up with her easy enough
But something must have made me stay

Repeat (3)

And now I´m searching through these carousels
And the carnival arcades
Searching everywhere from steeplechase to palisades
In any shooting gallery where promises are made
To rockaway, rockaway, rockaway, rockaway
From Cullercoats and Whitley Bay
Out to rockaway

And girl it looks so pretty to me, like it always did
Like the Spanish City to me, when we were kids
Girl it looks so pretty to me, like it always did
Like the Spanish City to me when I were kids
