Backstreet Loner Lyrics

I lit another cigarette She did a little pirouette No friend of mine - a dollar's fine A cruel world - when you cross this line
The masquerade is over The mask - it fades away Like a backstreet loner No need to be afraid
In johnny nofinger's bar I travelled so far I've been to all those places
Just a shot on the bar A cheap cigar And all the dead-eyed faces
Hold down the fever [ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/backstreet-loner-lyrics-u-d-o.html ] Don't you cross the line Hold down the fever Stop yourself in time
Never step on the ride Just take my advice I've suffered all the seasons
Feel it coming again I paid the price There's no rhyme - no reason
Hold down the fever, ...
When masquerades are over The show will fade away You'll be a backstreet loner You better be afraid
Hold down the fever, ...
