lyrics

Is he a ladies man, just another motorbike rider
Can she call him her lover when he rides
Did she wish him well while she don't have him beside her
Under a gas station's cover when the rain gets bad

He's with the traveling band, the people call him a stunner
Makes ‘em shake like the thunder, keeps ‘em satisfied
He strikes up that band then leaves without even a stutter
I bet all he hears from his mother is you know better than that

I hear him say that it’s a smooth strange way she calls his name
That keeps him moving down the road
He lives on borrowed time, to that she replies
Let me know where to go when it’s over
Rock and roller

Stumble into a half hearted greeting of a stranger
Same pair of shoes, stranger says he's got good taste
Walk away with one more friend to forget tomorrow
The back of his hand starts to show his age

I hear him say that it’s a smooth strange way she calls his name
That keeps him moving down the road
She’s who he wants to be, a highway no one rides for free
He don’t know where he goes when it’s over

He’s a lady’s man, her name’s rock and roll
I was the stranger, but I’m not no more
Let me know where I go when it’s over
Rock and roller
